SEYMOUR DUNCAN SH-8B INVADER ZEBRA

11102-31-Z Ultra-high output with a huge sound, Invader looks and sounds like no other pickup. The Invader is loud, vicious, and unapologetic. Somewhat surprisingly, Invader's neck model combines intimidating looks with warm, understated sound, the perfect partner for the high-performance Invader humbucker bridge. Installing an Invader changes the DNA of your guitar. Regardless of how dangerous your pickup sound is, the Invader will transform your guitar into the average, heavy-sounding beast that you always knew it could be. The power of Invader comes from the combination of specially overdeveloped coils, three large ceramic magnets and its extraordinary oversized metal oxide poles. These extraordinary polar poles expand the overall magnetic field and widen the frequency spectrum, which is why every note played through an Invader sounds so rich and massive. The ceramic magnets add depth and clarity, while the large hexagonal caps provide an even balance between the strings. The Invader offers the thickest and deepest low-end response of any passive pickup we make. The chords sound almost subsonic with lower tunings, but balance well with crisp highs, keeping everything well defined. While the Invader bridge seems bad and vicious, because it's bad and bad, Invader's neck humbucker is surprisingly warm and smooth, despite its intimidating appearance, and produces a loud crunch and a sustained moan. Hand-built in our Santa Barbara, California factory, Invader features three large ceramic bar magnets, oversized metal oxide poles, nickel-plated silver bottom plate, 4-conductor conductor wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum-packed wax jar for squeak-free performance.
