Description
Seymour Duncan Mark Holcomb Scarlet Neck 7-String White Pickup
The Seymour Duncan Mark Holcomb Scarlet Neck is a high-output humbucker engineered for the extended range and tonal demands of 7-string instruments. Designed in collaboration with Trivium's Mark Holcomb, this neck pickup captures articulate midrange presence and controlled low-end response without muddiness, tracking cleanly across extended ranges and heavy tunings for recording and live performance.
Tone & Electronics
The 8.36k DCR neck configuration balances clarity with output, allowing the pickup to cut through dense mixes while maintaining definition in rhythm sections. The ceramic magnet delivers punchy articulation and sustain ideal for capturing both lead lines and aggressive rhythmic material on 7-string guitars. The 4-conductor shielded cable and 4-conductor wire configuration enable coil-splitting functionality, providing tonal flexibility within your session and mix without requiring a second pickup swap.
Design & Build
The white cover offers visual clarity while the humbucker configuration provides dual-coil rejection of electromagnetic interference—essential for clean recordings in studios with multiple powered devices. Built to Seymour Duncan's exacting standards, this pickup installs seamlessly into 7-string guitar cavities and pairs effectively with bridge pickups from the Scarlet line or complementary models for cohesive tracking and blended tonal character.
