Seymour DuncanJeff Loomis Blackouts 7-String Humbucker Guitar Pickup Set with Passive Mounts Black
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for a seven-string rig, this Jeff Loomis Blackouts set combines a high-output bridge humbucker with a detailed neck humbucker. The bridge emphasizes pick attack and midrange presence for fast passages and substantial power chords under heavy distortion. At the neck, Alnico 5 rod magnets bring added treble detail, focused low notes, sustain, and dynamic range for legato work or clean playing. Its voicing takes cues from high-output passive humbuckers while retaining active-pickup output, headroom, and low noise.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Seven-string players using heavy distortion who need fast-picked lines to remain detailed.
- Players moving between forceful rhythm parts, legato passages, and clean neck-pickup work.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players specifically seeking a passive pickup set; these are active humbuckers.
