AHB-1 Blackouts Active Humbuckers
Many guitarists who love active pickups have wanted a pickup with less compression and a wider frequency range. Duncan discovered that other brands on the market use unbalanced inputs in a differential preamp, which is not very effective if you want to remove hum. Duncan found a solution to this while maintaining tone. The result is that the Blackouts are up to 14dB quieter than their competition, also have more low frequency, more high frequency and more output than the competition.
In other words, the Blackouts have more tone than other active pickups.
You will notice the difference when recording if you are next to a computer screen or fluorescent lighting, and above all you will notice the difference in your guitar sound. Recommended for old school metal, garage, punk, thrash, drop tunings, and other heavy rock styles.
Lots of top guitarists have already switched to Blackouts including Daniel Antonsson/Soilwork, Mick Thompson/Slipknot, Dino Cazares/Divine Heresy, Corey Beaulieu/Trivium, Silenoz/Dimmu Borgir, Mike Schleibaum/Darkest Hour, and Rob Trevino/Helstar.
All Blackouts include mounting hardware, potter jack and battery holder.
