## Overview

The Seymour Duncan Nazgûl Sentient Humbucker Set is a premium 7-string passive pickup duo combining ceramic and Alnico V magnets for high-output, aggressive bridge tones and balanced, articulate neck sounds. Hand-built in California with 4-conductor wiring and vacuum wax potting, this set offers versatile tonal options, tight bass response, and squeal-free performance, ideal for metal and low-tuned guitarists seeking professional-grade sound.

## Description

Take your guitar to the centre of the earth with the Nazgûl and Sentient Set. The Nazgûl combines a large ceramic magnet with custom winding specs. The result is a perfect blend of note articulation, saturation, pick attack, and one of the most brutal "chugs" you'll ever hear from a humbucker. It has incredible harmonic content across all frequency ranges, and an insanely tight bass response. The Nazgûl has a seriously aggressive high gain sound that is lively, yet completely controllable. The Sentient neck 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. Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the Nazgûl and Sentient both use a large ceramic and alnico 5 bar magnets, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and are vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.

Review: Highest quality pickups - I've used Seymour Duncan pickups for years now and have never been disappointed by the performance they put out!! The NAZGUL bridge pickup is absolutely BRUTAL , HEAVY AND JUST METALCORE MAYHEM !!!ESPECIALLY FOR A 7 STRING GUITAR !!!! AAAAA+++++
Review: 🤘 - Gave my PRS 7-string some much needed bite and sounds like a proper metal guitar now. Be aware that depending on on your guitar, you might have to modify the pickups and/or your guitar with some grinding or shaving. I had these professionally installed and the tech said it was very tight squeeze.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beast pickups. They completely revived my Jackson Dinky.
*by R***Y on January 6, 2017*

Beast pickups. They completely revived my Jackson Dinky. I have to throw a review in to balance out the one left as a joke. Edit: I should clarify that they make this guitar sound better for my style and range of playing which is in Drop A through crazy distortion, in the middle of a wide mix. I wouldn't suggest a Nazgul/Sentient combo for someone who likes a tweed sound or twangs around in standard tuning with a high A.
