Seymour DuncanNazgul Bridge Pickup 6-String - Black Black
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for the bridge position of a 6-string guitar, the Nazgul is a high-output humbucker aimed at aggressive, high-gain playing and low tunings. Its large ceramic bar magnet and custom winding approach bring a tight low end, prominent mids, searing highs, and strong harmonic content into heavily saturated parts. Four-conductor wiring provides multiple wiring options, while vacuum wax potting is intended to keep the pickup free of squeal. It also retains clear, bell-like tones on clean amp settings.
Strong match
Who this is for
- High-gain guitar parts where tight bass response and note articulation need to remain defined.
- Low-tuned hard rock and progressive metal playing on a 6-string guitar.
- Players planning to use the pickup’s four-conductor lead for multiple wiring options.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players seeking a low-output bridge pickup; this is specified as a high-output humbucker.
