      Yeah, cause that's important when choosing a PU. Then one day you realize, I was young once, "what did I say"...fuck me. This "satanic is cool" shit is old. As for the sound of the PU, I dig it in my Jackson

    I had the custom shop build me a set for my baritone strat. Got a pearly gates/black winter (alnico 2) in the neck and a ‘78/black winter in the bridge, they sound amazing, I think metal players should take a hard look at the half and half humbuckers for two reasons -1 everybody acknowledges the 59-custom hybrid is a sweet pickup. 2 a decent number of players pair a moderate output paf style neck pickup with a high output bridge, so why not get both in one pickup for a thick rich tone? Guarantee any of the high output metal pickups (nazgul,black winter, Pegasus) would all sound good with paf style hybrid (pearly gates, whole lotta humbucker, 59, jazz, even JB I bet).

      So what do you think if i did a nazgul/black winter bridge and a sentient/black winter neck is that possible? Is that a hybrid combo?

      They won't make hybrids of pickups with different magnet types (like a BW/JB).. They could, but they won't.

    Hey! I am considering ordering it too! Can you briefly share how would you compare it to nazgul and bw? Did you achieve the blend between the two as you expected? Thanks!

    • @MetalHeadProductions
      @MetalHeadProductions  2 месяца назад +1

      The bw is all mids, lots more output, the nazgul is a lot more balanced, pairs great with a drive into an amp. This pickup was like giving a nazgul some of the nastiness, extra output and mids from the bw and yeah, I was happy with it when I had it made years ago. Haven't had it for a long time though so it's hard to judge right now, tbh

      @@KeepAnOpenMind still love the bw and nazgul, the bw has been one of my most used pickups over the years, they've lived in one of my main guitars for a long time now. The naz is still killer, absolutely a modern classic, especially for 7 string which it was made for. I'd have to try this custom pickup again though to really compare that with these.

      @MetalHeadProductions  5 лет назад +6

      It's a personalized custom hand wound pickup. As far as market value that's spot on for handwound on it's own, just look at bkp. For Seymour Duncan to be like Gibson they would have to have a deep lack in quality control, and keep releasing variations of a jb for increasingly insane prices.
