Seymour Duncan Wes Hauch 7 String Jupiter Rails Set Black Rail

The Seymour Duncan Wes Hauch Jupiter Rails 7-String Humbucker Set is a high-output passive pickup set designed for modern metal, progressive metal, and extended-range guitar playing. Developed in collaboration with guitarist Wes Hauch, the Jupiter 7-string pickups are engineered to deliver aggressive midrange attack, tight response, strong output, and exceptional clarity—even when used with high gain and low tunings.

The Black Rail version adds a sleek, stealthy appearance while retaining the tonal characteristics of the Jupiter design. Its dual steel rail construction provides consistent string-to-string response, while the ceramic magnet and high-output winding deliver the fast, focused attack associated with Wes Hauch's signature sound.
