It’s not just a pickup, it’s a weapon of  tonal Armageddon. The Nazgûl was designed with a single purpose; for intense high-output-chug heavy punch-you-in-the-chest ruthless distortion. The tone is heavy and aggressive but it also retains articulation and provides the precise pick attack that is necessary for high-output metal. The Nazgûl gives chords heavy saturation and produces a lightning fast response to your amp. Perfect for all high output metal needs in which sonic obliteration needs to be accomplished.

Soapbar size active mount.

The Nazgûl is available for 6, 7 and 8 string players and also comes in an active mount (soapbar) sizing for those who own a guitar that originally came with active pickups but prefer the tone of passive pickups. To help achieve its aggressive tone it uses a strong Ceramic Bar magnet and has a DC resistance of 16.5k (7-string) and 18.7k (8-string). You can hear it in action in the video below.

The Nazgûl pairs nicely with the new Sentient neck pickup. Or if you’re looking for something with more string clarity, check out the Pegasus.
