Seymour Duncan BMP-1-STD - Blackouts Axe Long

Blackouts Modular Preamp: the "active" spirit without changing your guitar

The Blackouts Modular Preamp is designed for guitarists who want the power and attack of an active system without having to switch to a guitar made for active pickups, which often have a very modern look. By replacing your volume potentiometer, it provides a huge boost in output level while remaining visually invisible from the outside.

Who it's for: rock, metal, heavy crunch... and any musician seeking punch

This preamp is aimed at musicians who love saturated tones, tight palm-muting, and riffs that need to "cut through the mix" effortlessly. It's also perfect for stage guitarists seeking a strong and consistent signal, as well as recording enthusiasts who want more gain while keeping background noise under control.

Compatibility, gain, and simplicity: the core of the BMP-1-STD

The BMP-1-STD installs in place of the volume and acts as a preamp with a very high output level, operating with very low noise. The main advantage: you keep your humbuckers (even very traditional ones) as long as they have 4 conductors, and you benefit from a gain boost without major modifications. This version is supplied with a standard volume potentiometer and a long shaft, convenient depending on your guitar's configuration.
