Seymour Duncan Mortal Coil Active Humbuckers, Set

Designed from the ground up for modern players who demand brutal articulation and authoritative low end, Mortal Coil's voice 1 delivers an exceptionally tight, mix-ready modern metal sound that stays focused and controlled across complex riffs, palm mutes, and harmonics. Alongside it, there are additional voices drawn directly from Seymour Duncan’s legacy: a classic JB & Jazz–inspired voice 2, plus a powerful single-coil voice 3 ready for when versatility matters. Built on 50 years of pickup-voicing expertise, Mortal Coil represents a fresh approach to what multiple-voiced active pickups can be.

At the core of Mortal Coil are precision-wound high-density copper coils with optimized resistance, providing faster transient response and stronger pick attack than competing designs across all tunings. All-new preamps utilize advanced audio op-amps that contribute gain, rich harmonic detail, and dynamic feel with extremely low distortion, while the efficient circuit design supports superior battery life for reliable performance on stage and in the studio. The result is crushing attack and surgical control under modern metal gain. 

Experience what happens when 50 years of pickup expertise meets modern active technology. Mortal Coil can also install easily as a drop-in upgrade for many existing active setups.
