Sentient™ Rails

The Sentient Rails neck pickup was designed as the perfect companion to our Nazgûl Rails. The rail design evenly distributes the magnetic field across the strings, enhancing string to string balance, with increased clarity and sustain for intricate chordal passages while being clear and tight for single note runs under high gain for a modern response. The Sentient Rails pickup is incredibly expressive with a broad harmonic range, and it excels in lower tunings on any guitar!

Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the Sentient Rails uses an Alnico 8 bar magnet, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance. Available for both 6 and 7-string versions.

Nazgûl™ Rails

The Nazgûl high output humbucker has become a staple of modern metal, and the Nazgûl Rails is a brutal variation. The Nazgûl Rails combines the unrelenting articulation, saturation and chug of our original Nazgûl with the clarity, tightness, and sustain of rail design. The rail design helps focus the low-end for a result that is truly vicious, yet completely controllable.

Jazz Rails

The Jazz Rails is a new take on one of our most popular neck humbuckers. The Jazz Model is well known for shimmering treble response and solid, well-defined bass even in the most overdriven situations. Rail design evenly distributes the magnetic field across the strings, resulting in enhanced string-to-string balance with increased clarity and sustain, especially when used with high gain in modern applications.

JB Rails

The JB Rails offers the modern player a unique combination – bringing together the Seymour Duncan JB Model (one of our most iconic pickups) with rail design. This configuration retains the classic character of our JB Model with its powerful low-end, strong highs, and upper midrange bump, which has made it the go-to lead pickup for countless luminaries. Rail design evenly distributes the magnetic field across the strings, providing enhanced string-to-string balance with increased clarity and sustain. The result is perfect for modern high-gain applications, and it looks as hot as it sounds.

Employing a 500k volume pot will give you pronounced high-end, while opting for a 250k pot mellows and softens the tone, ideal for a smoother response. The JB Rails is designed to pair perfectly with our Jazz Rails neck pickup.

Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the JB Rails uses an Alnico 8 bar magnet, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options like series, parallel and split coil, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance. They are available in 6-String and 7-String versions.

Red Devil™ for Tele®

When Seymour Duncan first introduced the Signature Billy Gibbons Red Devil set, his fiery sound was captured in Strat®-sized humbucker pickups. Now, that hot Texas tone is available as a drop-in replacement bridge pickup for any Telecaster® wielding guitarist.

Approved by Reverend Willie G himself, the Red Devil for Tele® is built with an Alnico 5 magnet, 4 conductor cable, and a hot wind that drives amps and pedals harder than a traditional vintage humbucker. Whether you’re looking for cutting leads, tight pinch harmonics, or thick rhythm tones, it’s all at your fingertips with the Red Devil for Tele®.

Hades Gates™

From scorching lead guitar to his own line of hot sauces, Billy Gibbons has never been afraid of a little extra heat. The Pearly Gates pickup set from his coveted 1959 Les Paul® has been a favorite among P.A.F. purists for decades. For the Reverend, some guitars in his collection benefited from additional output to deliver his signature sound.

This demand for a hotter wind forged The Hades Gates humbucker set – a fiery take on the mid-forward, punchy sound Billy is known for. Alnico 2 magnets and this added output drive your amp into some hot, blue, and righteous territory.

Hades Gates™ Humbuckers are hand built in Santa Barbara, California with 4-conductor cable and short mounting legs.

Antiquity Strings

The Seymour Duncan Antiquity series of pickups have always given musicians access to the true vintage tones of the most famous guitars ever produced. To further our commitment to capturing these influential sounds –Seymour Duncan is now pleased to offer the perfectly voiced companion, a set of Antiquity Vintage Modern Strings.

Now our Antiquity Vintage Modern Strings bring you even closer to the sound of electric guitar’s early heyday. Pure nickel wound and available in your favorite modern gauges, Antiquity Vintage Modern Strings are the perfect start to your signal chain in the quest to unlocking your favorite classic guitar sounds.
