Seymour Duncan Jupiter Rails & Black Winter Colour Options

Widely considered one of the best players in the modern metal scene, Wes Hauch’s reputation precedes him. Whether playing with Alluvial, The Black Dahlia Murder, Devin Townsend, Thy Art Is Murder, The Faceless, or as a guest soloist on countless records, Wes’ ferociously aggressive and immaculately clean playing cuts like a knife through the mix.

To facilitate the articulate and aggressive tones he’s known for, Wes requested a rails humbucker set with searing output and maximum clarity and balance. Built with dual steel rails, a ceramic magnet and a finely tuned high output wind developed closely with Wes, the result is Jupiter Humbuckers – pickups that deliver aggressive mid-range focused attack, evenly balanced string response, and clarity.

The Black Winter pickup is a savagely high-output passive humbucker built for extreme metal, with no less than three large ceramic magnets to ensure maximum output and sustain in all high-gain situations. The custom overwound coil design delivers incredible clarity in the mids and highs, while the low end stays controlled and focused. The Black Winter is designed to handle any tuning, no matter how low you go, and its voicing facilitates aggressive palm mutes, fluid sweep picking, and punishing lead tones.
 
Crushing distortion, vicious mids, and aggressive saturation are at your fingertips, without sacrificing string-to-string separation or sensitivity. The 7- and 8-string versions are built to handle even more extended-range low notes with ease. Pair the bridge Black Winter with the Black Winter neck model for maximum metal onslaught.
