Description
The Seymour Duncan MortalCoil Bridge – Black is a next-generation active humbucker designed for players who demand uncompromising precision, tight low end, and exceptional tonal versatility.
Engineered specifically for the bridge position, the MortalCoil combines three distinct voices into a single pickup platform: the aggressive MC1 modern metal voice, a classic JB-inspired humbucker voice, and a powerful single-coil mode for expanded sonic flexibility. Whether delivering crushing high-gain rhythm tones, expressive leads, or articulate cleans, the MortalCoil adapts effortlessly to modern guitar rigs.
Built using precision-wound high-density copper coils and Seymour Duncan’s advanced low-distortion active preamp design, the MortalCoil Bridge delivers fast transient response, enhanced pick attack, and outstanding note separation across all tunings and gain levels.
