Black Magic Humbucker Pickup
The Mojotone "Black Magic" humbucker guitar pickup was designed to work well with drop tunings, single note solo playing, and articulate chord progressions with tone being most important. It retains unbelievable clarity and note separation with lots of harmonic overtones. The double black screw side and our special blend of magnets (ceramic and alnico 5) gives this Black Magic humbucker the beautiful tone of alnico without getting mushy on the lows and highs. The ceramic magnet tightens the lows and highs while increasing harmonics and overall clarity of the pickup.
It's the perfect humbucker for jazz fusion, speed picking, drop tunings, and aggressive chord playing. Our 7 string version reads higher ohms than our 6 string version due to the longer coils. Everything else is the exact same spec and sound. Vacuum potted coils.

Great Pick
by Jason M. -
I compared these to the Lace Sensor Fingerburners since they are a similar hybrid pick up. I think the Black Magics were much better for the tone I like. They had a bit more clarity and articulation. Having the Burnt cover Lace Sensors was pretty cool but it's a bit loud. I prefer to have more subtle looking pick ups in the long run so I appreciate the traditional styling of the Black Magics as well. Only real negative would be that the "black" slugs weren't super consistent in the color coating of the magnets. It's not a big deal because that's something I'd expect to wear over time anyways, but it would be nice if it was fully black.

Order few sets of theses on many different guitars.
The sound is solid, full and have good pick tracking ; you have best of both world : the tightness of ceramic and singing harmonics of Alnico.
The bridge pickup have lot of power and impact ; work very well with power chords, aggressive soloing or detuning setups.
The neck pickup is very fluid and melodic ; well balanced with the bridge pickup.
Very good set for Hard Rock, Progressive music and 80's guitar hero sound :)
For me it sound even better on bright guitars (ebony or maple fingerboard)
