Seymour Duncan Pegasus Bridge Pickup – Matte Black
The Seymour Duncan Pegasus bridge pickup captures articulate, balanced aggression without sacrificing note definition across the frequency spectrum. Its moderate output and carefully voiced EQ curve respond transparently to pick dynamics and playing technique, delivering clarity in high-gain tracking and musical definition at lower volumes for versatile session work. The matte black finish integrates seamlessly into modern and classic guitar aesthetics alike.
Tone & Electronics
Built on an Alnico 5 bar magnet with nickel silver bottom plate construction, this pickup produces punchy midrange presence balanced by articulate treble response and controlled bass extension. The 4-conductor lead wire enables flexible wiring options for series, parallel, and split configurations, letting you dial in the exact tonal palette and coil-tap functionality your mix demands.
Construction & Materials
Handcrafted in Santa Barbara, California, each pickup undergoes vacuum wax potting to eliminate microphonic feedback and ensure reliable performance across multiple takes and sessions. The moderate output level and precision magnet work combine to preserve harmonic overtones while maintaining tight, controlled response critical for bridge position clarity in dense arrangements.
