Seymour Duncan Pegasus Passive Mount Bridge HB 8 String (Black)

The Pegasus humbucker from Seymour Duncan answers the call of extended–range progressive metal players who demand clarity and punch from their 8–string rigs. Designed for bridge position mounting, this passive humbucker combines an Alnico V magnet with a medium output wind to balance articulation with the aggression modern metal tones require. The voicing ensures each note in complex chord voicings and rapid riffing remains distinct, even under high gain.

The pickup's DC resistance measures 16.6k ohms, providing enough output to drive high–gain amplifiers without sacrificing note definition or dynamic response. Four–conductor shielded cable allows for coil–splitting and series/parallel wiring configurations. The Alnico V magnet delivers focused midrange and tight low–end response that prevents the muddiness common in extended–range instruments. Designed and manufactured in the USA, the Pegasus handles drop–tuned and extended–range applications with consistent tonal performance across all eight strings.
