A Signature Pickup Tailored for Modern Metal
Developed in close collaboration with Wes Hauch, the Jupiter Rails aims for a clear goal: to deliver a modern metal tone that is both fierce and clean. The result is an aggressive, very clear humbucker with a pronounced midrange attack and excellent string-to-string balance. Ideal for surgical riffs, tight palm mutes, and leads that remain intelligible even under heavy saturation.
Neck + Bridge Set: The Cohesive Duo for 6-String Guitars
This set combines two humbuckers (neck and bridge) designed to work together: a more nuanced neck pickup to maintain definition and control, and a beefier bridge pickup to drive the amp and enhance presence. The stainless steel rail design promotes a consistent response, especially appreciated on bends, wide dynamic ranges, and low tunings.
Stainless Steel Rails, Ceramic Magnet, and Dedicated Winding: Precision, Output Level, and Punch
With its ceramic magnet and specific winding, the Jupiter delivers a "fiery" output while retaining clarity. The mids stand out with a marked attack, helping the guitar stay upfront without becoming muddy. Whether in the studio or on stage, you get a modern, aggressive, and articulate tone perfectly suited for metal.
