Black Winter: A Seymour Duncan Voice Born for the Extreme
Developed to meet the demands of extreme metal guitarists, the Black Winter range is designed to maintain definition where many pickups falter: high gain, fast rhythms, dropped tunings, and walls of distortion. In the bridge position, the Black Winter aims for an aggressive and articulate sound, allowing you to switch from a "saw" riff to a cutting lead without losing string-to-string separation.
For Which Guitars and Styles?
The TB-BW-B is the Trembucker version of the Black Winter bridge pickup: its pole piece spacing is optimized to align properly under the strings of guitars equipped with a vibrato (or wide bridge). It is intended for guitarists playing in high-gain styles (black metal, death metal, thrash, modern metal, etc.) who want a tight low end, biting mids, and highs that cut through the mix without becoming muddy.
Trembucker, Ceramic Magnets, and 4 Conductors: The Combo to Shape Your Gain
With its humbucker design and ceramic magnets, this pickup delivers a fast response, solid sustain, and a clear attack, particularly effective on alternate picking riffs and fast palm mutes. Its 4-conductor wiring gives you the freedom to explore multiple wiring options (split, parallel, etc.) to expand your tonal palette, from sharper "single-coil" sounds to tighter, more modern textures, all while retaining the radical identity of the Black Winter in the bridge position.
