Black Winter vs Nazgul - Pickup Brawl!

[@experimentalgroup9473]

Black Winter is my favorite pickup. With a tone knob, you can go from very clean to straight death metal. And still maintain that organic passive sound. It’s gorgeous clean though, but no one plays them clean.

[@donarturrofalborini1217]

Hey I want to change my pickups in my Epiphone Jeff Waters Flying V.i have a Peavey 6505+ Amp and i play death metal.i love old swedish sound.i have also Metal Muff and i stil have problem which pickups should i buy? Big confused

@@louistorres I've yet to try an A8 since they're on the uncommon side. The only bad I've heard is that some have described them to be "clangy" at times which I take it from your praise hasn't been the case for you. I've also heard that they sound really "big" with thick low mids which sounds dreamy to me. Thanks for the video by the way!

[@louistorres]

Just make sure you watch a few KZbin videos with the Nazgul and listen to hear if it's the tone you think you'll like. Your amp, speakers and pedal chain will adjust the pickup's tone as well, but you would understand your gear more than anyone else. I love my Nazgul pickups. I have them in an ESP and in my Ibanez S7420 as well. It's a great middle of the road/ neutral kind of pickup that covers several genres of metal.

@Louistorres As a metalhead, I've been very interested in both of these pickups. I'm drawn to Nazgul just off the name alone. They both sound good. Nazgul seems to be a bit chunkier. If you were to use both in one guitar which pickup would you put in the neck and which in the bridge?

[@toddwilliamson2651]

Nazgul Bridge/ Black Winter neck its an amazing combo and the only one available since the Nazgul is a bridge pickup. Usually you team Nazgul with Sentient. I am thinking of getting a Black Winter bridge and Sentient neck. Sentient neck is really a nice pickup too. Need more guitars \m/ \m/

I'm looking forward to hearing the chunkiness of the nazgul. Also, being a Tolkien fan, the name alone is killer.

So I use crazy mids and treble, would this push black winter into ear murder zone? I'm tuned to drop A. Lol

[@nvmbrsdoom5]

I use Black Winter pickups on my baritone and I tune down to A#. I'm usually EQing my sound with a fair amount of mid/treble as well, and I have never found the BW to get too shrill or overbearing. For as hot and powerful as they can get, they're surprisingly well balanced and articulate and clean up nicely too. I guess it'll depend on your own touch and attack and your overall tone setup, but for me I found the Nazgul to be a bit more treble for me than I preferred compared to the Nazgul (which is a great pickup too!)

[@zAvAvAz]

Excellent. Example the Seymour Duncan 'SLUG' is 40K ohms. Does that mean it puts out 1200 millivolts? Possibly close. There is some relation to Resistance in K Ohms. However it does not necessarily mean that the output is the highest for a given amount of resistance. You can achieve lower resistance coupled with greater millivolt output and greater signal to the amp and greater inductance in the pickup produced based on the sciences of pickup design. Although 'Output' is the millivolts not the resistance that are the K Ohms. Output is your peak volume. Resistance versus your millivolts output is your headroom. Larry DiMarzio is the only one that has it all correct on their website. Seymour duncan is a million miles far behind on their website. However they also make great pickups. DiMarzio specifications are awesome to reference like this= Bass, Low midrange, High midrange, Treble,. Millivolts, Resistance, magnet type. And the only thing left to check at home IS the INDUCTANCE. This shall tell you almost everything you need to know about a pickup and better for reference and sound referencing. If Larry told about the inductance on the website then there would not be a better pickup selecting tooL, than the website itself and Dimarzio is only one single input step away from achieving this, with listing the inductance with what is up on website already. Based on this, i must choose DiMarzio for sound searching what i am want to use for what purpose or instrument. The reason being i am can match pickups from different brands or the same with different pickups! In this way, you can mix and match for a pallete of your choosing to do what you want it to. Thanks to DiMarzio for this great insight and impeccable work and exquisite detail that is DiMarzio. Of course we know what duncans sound like. And there are must have duncans that you need in your recording studio, and there is a reason. So in every tool box i am recommend pickups from many different manufacturers and custom builders as well. Voodoo pickups, Bareknuckle pickups, Seymour Duncan, DiMarzio, and Lundgren to name a few. Legendary pickups as well. Some Gibson pickups also. It goes on forever. However there are very specific pickups that are must have. Like the SUHR thornbucker Pete Thorn signature model.

Your Nazgul is going to have more highs bled off it with a tone control pot in the circuit, even dialed all the way down it still bleeds some off unless you run a no-load tone pot which would completely bypass it when set to up all the way. The Black Winter you have no tone pot so it is completely bypassed...you'll hear all of it. Its hard for me to tell any difference going through your recorder, compressed, put on yourtube, and replayed back on my tv.... but if you hear that high tinny on the Black Winters try a tone pot and cap. or a different tone cap.

I bought my 2018 Solar E1.6 evertune used off Reverb (from back when Ola used to QC them in person) specifically to let me thrash away and keep drop A# in tune- but the duncan solars just seem muddy to me. Theyre not terrible, but for my purposes I want something with more bite, since Im going pretty low. Im trying to decide what pickups I wanna put in it. Something full and crushing, without shrill high-end/attack. Im debating between lundgren, fishman and seymour duncan currently. I just have so many demos to listen to in-depth..

Louis Torres hi man loving your channel.I have seen you now test the Black winter,Nazgul and the JB and I’m torn between these 3 for a bridge pick up.Which would you recommend?.Also would you recommend another bridge pick up over these?.Thanks in advance :-)

[@gavinchristiantoro]

Nazgul is fine, the issue is with the Sentient.

[@mathias6423]

What issue might that be ? The little I have heard the Sentient sounded good in the neck position and seemed like a good addition to the Nazgul bridge.

Nazgul is good shit. I loved my Dimebucker in the Jackson I had.
