Seymour Duncan | 7 String Pegasus | Bridge | PMT Blackmetal

The Pegasus was originally designed for extended range instruments. However, 7 and 8 string players immediately demanded Seymour Duncan offer a version to call their own. It incorporates an alnico 5 bar magnet and custom winding specs. The goal was to deliver a warm, balanced, responsive, and lush tone for progressive metal. It’s a harmonically rich pickup with a prominent midrange and a focused low end. The high resonant peak makes for a sparkly top end and an incredible “bloom” on chords in high-gain situations. The responsive and accurate pick attack ensures that you will cut through any live mix, and will have tight-tracking transients in a studio environment.

Because the Pegasus is a moderate output pickup, it works as well for clean tones as it does for distorted tones. Hand built in Seymour Duncan's Santa Barbara, CA, factory, the Pegasus features an alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.
