Seymour DuncanM Holcomb Alpha Omega 8-String Pickup Black Bridge

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The 8-string Omega is the bridge-position half of the Mark Holcomb Alpha & Omega design. It brings forceful percussive response and growl through the mids and low end, while preserving the clarity and brightness needed to separate complex chords, intricate lead lines, and solos. The result is a black bridge pickup aimed at precise, high-impact parts that must stay distinct in a full mix. Made in Santa Barbara, California.

Strong match
Who this is for
