A Pickup Born from a Demand: Cutting Through the Mix "With a Scalpel"
Regarded as a reference in the modern metal scene, Wes Hauch has built a reputation on fierce, ultra-clean, and surgical playing. The idea behind the Jupiter Rails is simple: to capture that relentless articulation and midrange bite without sacrificing clarity when chords become dense, with low tunings or high gain. The result: a rail humbucker with a strong character, designed in close collaboration with the artist to maintain sharp definition even when playing fast and loud.
Neck Position: Precision, Sustain, and Clarity in High Gain
In the neck position, the Black Jupiter Rails aims for a rare balance: a full and stable sound, but never "muddy." The rails ensure a uniform response across the full width of a 7-string's strings, helping to maintain equal presence on both low and high strings. Perfect for singing leads, legato passages, extended chords, and fast runs where every attack must remain intelligible.
Stainless Steel Rails, Ceramic Magnet, and Specific Winding: Sharpness Without Harshness
The combination of two stainless steel rails and a ceramic magnet delivers a clear attack, excellent low-end sustain, and well-defined mids designed to stand out in the mix without pushing volume excessively. The winding has been calibrated for a powerful output and maximum clarity, with dynamics that remain controllable: you can hammer the riff with palm-muting or add nuance with the pick, and the pickup follows without collapsing. The black finish with black rails on black coils naturally integrates with modern guitars, whether understated or radical.
