An Invader adapted for 7 strings, designed for the bridge
The SH-8B-P-SB-7STR Invader 7 carries the spirit of the SH-8B in a passive 7-string version with a soapbar format, specifically oriented for the bridge position. The goal is clear: to offer a sharp attack, plenty of presence, and enough power reserve to handle low tunings and heavy gauge strings without losing control of the low end.
Who is it for and what is it used for?
This pickup is aimed at guitarists who want an immediately effective sound for heavy riffs and fast rhythms: punk, garage, thrash, metal, modern hard rock. In the bridge configuration, it emphasizes harmonics, attack precision, and a cutting character, while remaining passive to preserve natural playing dynamics (both pick attack and aggressive alternate picking).
Ceramic power, 4-conductor wiring, and coil split
Its ceramic magnet delivers bite, a firm response, and a very direct "punch" feel. Thanks to its 4 conductors, the wiring allows several options (including coil splitting ) to expand the tonal palette: from a dense, saturated humbucker to finer tones for clean passages, intros, or more open verses, without changing guitars.
