Seymour Duncan Jeff Loomis Blackouts - Set - Active High Output Electric Guitar Pickup

Jeff Loomis knows what he wants to hear from his guitar, whether playing solo or as a member of iconic metal bands such as Arch Enemy and Conquering Dystopia. When he set out to design his signature Blackouts set, Jeff wanted pickups that would remain clear under heavy distortion, with a strong pick attack to maintain definition when he plays fast, and with enough sustain and dynamics to keep up with his virtuoso legato and sweep-picking techniques. The Jeff Loomis Blackouts are inspired by the voicing of high-output passive humbuckers, but with the output, headroom, and low noise of actives. Jeff’s active Blackouts set is designed to sound more organic and dynamic than most active humbuckers. Jeff’s active Blackouts set is designed to sound more organic and dynamic than most active humbuckers. His neck pickup employs Alnico 5 rod magnets to further enhance the response to picking and legato techniques, with a slight bump in the treble frequencies and a focused bass response to keep lower notes from sounding too boomy. Available for 6-string, or for 7-string in a passive mount architecture with black brushed nickel covers or in an active mount soapbar housing. Handmade in Santa Barbara, California: Seymour Duncan takes pride in designing and crafting our products to create the most amazing sound possible. That starts with providing an environment that attracts and retains our great team of engineers, product designers and craftsmen, many of whom have been with the company for decades.
