The Seymour Duncan Sentient humbucker was originally designed to accompany the 7-string passive Nazgûl and Pegasus bridge pickups. It delivers a balanced, versatile tone that fits right between the '59 model and the Jazz neck pickup. You'll get pristine cleans, and fluid leads under high gain. The Sentient is a very articulate vintage output pickup with great dynamic response and a wide harmonic range. It works great for low tunings in all humbucker-equipped guitars. This passive 7-string humbucker comes with a black soapbar cover with one row of exposed poles for a modern active look and is a quick retrofit into any guitar with an active rout. It is also available with standard open coils, or with a black metal humbucker cover, both in a classic passive mount to easily fit in any guitar with that traditional routing. Pair with the passive Nazgûl or Pegasus bridge humbuckers for a perfectly balanced metal tone.

Hand built in their Santa Barbara, CA factory, the Sentient uses an Alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance. Clean or dirty, the 7-string Active Mount Sentient delivers great neck tone for extended-range guitars routed for active humbuckers, and pairs perfectly with the Nazgûl & Pegasus bridge models.
