Description
The Blackouts AHB-1n Phase II is Seymour Duncan’s active humbucker built for players running seven strings who still want articulate note separation instead of a muddy low-B wash. As the neck-position half of the AHB-1 set, it’s tuned to complement the bridge Blackouts unit while standing on its own in mixed setups.
- Active circuitry for consistent output and low noise across the frequency spectrum
- Phase II design refines the original Blackouts voicing for tighter bass response and clearer articulation, especially useful on extended-range instruments
- Sized and wound specifically for 7-string neck placement
- Humbucker configuration cancels hum while retaining pickup character
- Black finish for a clean, understated look on most guitars
Because it’s active, the AHB-1n delivers a more even response than passive pickups tend to across a wider tonal range, so chords stay defined and single notes cut through even when you’re down-tuned. It suits players moving between rhythm chug and lead work who don’t want the low string to dominate everything else in the mix.
Pair it with the matching AHB-1 bridge Blackouts for a cohesive set, or drop it into your current 7-string wiring if you’re chasing a cleaner, more controlled neck tone without losing output.
