SEYMOUR DUNCAN BW-R-B Black Winter Rail, black, bridge position
The Black Winter is as dark as winter in Scandinavia and delivers a powerful, aggressive tone. The perfect balance of this pickup lets you go from a heavy, dirty sound for extreme riffs to a razor-sharp tone for articulate solos. Perfect for all forms of extreme metal.
To satisfy guitarists seeking the most powerful pickups out there, the new Black Winter Rails reach a new level of ferocity and precision.
Designed for the most extreme metal genres, this evolution combines the aggression of the original Black Winter with the modern benefits of rail design. The result: a passive pickup that delivers a punchy, string-to-string balanced tone with even greater output and sustain. Whether you’re ripping through fast leads or thunderous palm mutes while pushing the limits of drop tunings, Black Winter Rails offer the clarity and definition needed to dominate the mix.
Adding rails to the triple ceramic magnet base brings a huge boost in definition to the original model. By distributing the magnetic field evenly across all strings, the rail design ensures unmatched balance, even with the heaviest distortion. It tightens and clarifies the lows for a more focused sense of power, while extending sustain for fast leads that demand effortless playability. Whether you’re venturing into the lowest tunings while layering complex chord progressions, Black Winter Rails keep every note defined, giving you the responsiveness and articulation that modern metal demands.
Black Winter Rails are available for 6- and 7-string guitars and are compatible with both standard and tremolo bridges. Handbuilt in Santa Barbara, California.
