Designed with two stainless steel rails, a ceramic magnet and a high-output winding specifically designed in close collaboration with Wes Hauch: this is how the Jupiter was born, an aggressive humbucker, very clear but with a pronounced attack in the mediums.
Considered one of the best guitarists on the modern metal scene, Wes Hauch's reputation is second to none. Whether with Alluvial, Devin Townsend, Thy Art Is Murder, The Faceless or as a guest soloist on countless albums, Wes' ferocious yet extremely clean playing cuts through the mix with a scalpel.
To promote that aggressive, articulate grit we're known for, Wes requested a set of rail humbuckers with a fiery output level with maximum balance and clarity. Composed of two stainless steel rails, a ceramic magnet and a specific winding to achieve the desired output level, the Jupiter humbuckers deliver an aggressive grain with precise midrange and excellent balance between the strings. It's not what will give you Wes' fingers but you will at least have the sound you need!
Handcrafted at the Seymour Duncan workshop in Santa Barbara, California (USA), the Wes Hauch signature Jupiter humbucker is available individually for bridge or neck position and also as a set of two pickups.
