Seymour DuncanPegasus 8-String Passive Guitar Pickup Black Bridge
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Pegasus is a passive bridge pickup for 8-string guitar, using an Alnico 5 magnet and custom-designed coils for moderate output and an even response across the fretboard. It is voiced to keep notes balanced even when substantial gain is applied, making its focus especially clear in large chords and detailed arpeggios. The black metal cover gives this version a covered look. It is designed to pair with a Sentient neck pickup and is specified for bright through semi-warm woods, with maple or rosewood fingerboards.
Strong match
Who this is for
- 8-string progressive-metal arrangements that alternate between high-gain chords and complex arpeggiated passages.
- Players using bright to semi-warm woods with maple or rosewood fingerboards.
