SEYMOUR DUNCAN METAL AHB-1
The original Blackouts bridge humbucker delivers all of the power and full-bodied punch that todays metal players demand from an active pickup. You get the high output signal level of an active pickup, with more of an organic feel and open tonal response that allows the true character of your guitar to come through. The treble and bass response is extended beyond the range of traditional active pickups and has been carefully balanced with a slightly scooped midrange for the perfect crunch. This pickup excels at screaming pinched harmonics and hyper-speed riffage with responsive dynamics across the entire fretboard.

SILENOZ
Silenoz is the rhythm guitarist and co-founder of Norwegian black metal kings Dimmu Borgir. Intertwining symphonic elements into their own mix of extreme metal, Silenoz has been a key member of Dimmu since their inception almost twenty years ago. With a guitar that looks as menacing as his band, the LTD Okkultist is a uniquely shaped guitar that will make your wildest dreams (and nightmares) come true. Dimmu Borgir is a Norwegian symphonic black metal band from Oslo, Norway, formed in 1993. The name is derived from Dimmuborgir, a volcanic formation in Iceland, the name of which means “dark cities” or “dark castles/fortresses” in Icelandic, Faroese and Old Norse.
