Seymour DuncanInvader 8-String Passive Guitar Pickup Black Bridge
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For an 8-string bridge position, the passive Invader brings high output, aggressive attack, and heavy low-string thump. Three ceramic magnets, overwound coils, and enlarged pole pieces create an extended magnetic field that gives B and F# notes an almost sub-sonic signal at the amp. Power chords and solos retain their cut through the pickup's substantial voice. The black metal-covered version is described as warming bright or shrill guitars while adding further body to darker instruments. It can be used as an Invader set or paired with a '59 or Jazz neck pickup.
Strong match
Who this is for
- 8-string high-gain bridge parts where B and F# notes need an almost sub-sonic amp signal.
- Power chords and solos that need heavy output while retaining a cutting edge.
- Bright or shrill guitars needing the stated warming effect, or darker guitars needing more body.
