The concept for our Monolith Humbucker set was to explore a higher-output pickup set intentionally designed for guitarists who play both modern and extreme styles of music. High-output humbuckers often suffer from either a boxy voicing or a harsh and brittle top end that can be fatiguing. We voiced a set of pickups with the right balance of a strong, thicker midrange and smooth top end for clarity and articulation.

The Monolith bridge position offers a midrange forward frequency response with the right amount of compression and dynamics when palm muting for a satisfying attack and tight low-end grunt. Like our other pickup sets, the neck position is open and clear, but with a prominent midrange that offers a more vocal sound for leads and clean passages.
SC. Single conductor version.

The Monolith Humbucker set is available as a two-piece set for both 6 and 7-string guitars. For 6-string sets, we also offer an F-spaced bridge position pickup (53 mm) to match a wider string spacing required for guitars with tremolos.
