I mean, this guy is playing the exact riffs over and over down to the smallest details of how things are picked. Then there was someone switching out humbuckers and setting the guitar up between the tests. They put in some good work into these comparison videos.
By the way if you have a Sentient pickup and a tone nob on your guitar try turning the tone nob all the way back. You'll get a very Cliff Burton bass guitar like sound when distorted and a good clean bass tone when not distorted. Not kidding. One of the few pickups that I ever bother tweaking the tone nob for.
Love this neck pickup in my Les Paul with 50's wiring and Centralab pots (all above 580k). Probably the most balanced pickup I've ever owned. I'm still getting used to the Pegasus in the bridge. This is the first guitar that I find myself gravitating more toward the neck pickup than the bridge. There's a lot of air around the notes and when you find the Sweet Spot, It really has a lot of bloom when you are holding and sustaining a note. It also is nice and tight when chugging with a lot of gain.
Honestly, I only noticed slight differences towards the end there during the comparison? What did you guys notice? BTW props to Seymour Duncan for doing these shootouts. Much appreciated and great gesture to our community.
The Pearly Gates stuck out the most to me, it sounded like it'd be a good choice for people (like me) who prefer single coils in the neck over humbuckers. The Sentient sounded clinical to me but so does the Dimarzio Air Norton, which most people agree is one of the best neck pickups for high gain, so maybe that's just a compromise that has to be made.
you guys need this type of video but for like..... ALL the pickups! make more of these and like the direct comparisons for bridge pickups keith merrow did and the likes please!
A lot of thanks to Seymour Duncan for doing these videos. It helps players a lot to decide. A question though, I have a Epiphone les paul custom pro. I wanna change the pickups and I have decided to go with the 59 custom hybrid in the bridge but I am confused about the neck pickup. I have heard a lot of good things about pearly gates for the neck position and I quite like the sentient too. So can anyone help me out. I will use the neck pickups for cleans and smooth solos. I will play blues rock, 80s' rock and a bit heavy metal with this guitar. Some help would be appreciated guys.
+rohit roy Pearly Gates has a specific "bite" in the high mids". It's awesome if you're planning to use middle gain and a lot of dynamics withing blues-rock kind of playing. It can really scream the "texas way". But...if you more into use of high gain leads, then sentien is smoother - a little more balanced and does not boost "the bite" too much when you play on the amp that does it on it's own. From the other side...Sentient works great with 24 fretted guitars. It sorto f give back part of what's been taken off due to nekc pickup placement. Definitely warmer on cleans.
rohit roy I had that combination you want for a little bit , PG neck & 59 Custom/Hibrid and I didn't really bind with the PG, probably you should try something smoother like a Alnico II pro or even better... a Stag Mag in the neck. Just my $0.02
I really like the Sentient pickup in my Esp. In fact, it may unseat the Dimarzio liquifire that's been in my main player PRS for about a decade. It can be a little noisier and unforgiving than the Liquifire and that takes a little more effort to control but the attack and cleans are amazing. The Pegasus, however, is another story. Without a doubt, its the worst pickup I've ever played.
I'd like to put this in the neck position of an Epiphone ES-335. It's a darker sounding guitar and want to add some clarity when using gain, without it becoming shrill. Common suggestions for semi-hollow guitars have been the Duncan 59 or Jazz, however, many say that these could be too bass heavy or too bright. Would the Sentient be a nice hybrid between the two? I use the Epiphone primarily for modern jazz and rock. Any recommendations would be appreciated!
I'm trying to choose a neck pickup. My main contenders are a sentient, a pearly gates, a 59, or an alnico ii. The bridge will probably be a custom 5, the guitar is a jackson with a mahogany body and a flame maple top, and has a floyd rose, if that makes any difference. Which should I go for? Which would go best with a custom 5? Any help would be most appreciated!
You are doing exactly what i'm doing, i have all those same pickups and tried them all, the sentient is now in the neck and im using a duncan distortion in the bridge. the clarity blows the custom 5 away. I have the custom 5 in an esp and its getting replaced soon. It's a great pickup but the duncan dostortion does it better, the dimarzio super distortion is right there with the duncan distortion, you can get them on ebay cheap, on another les paul i have the sentient in the neck and a dimarzio super distorion in the bridge. . the mix is incredible, i play classic rock to metal and jazz. and my setup handles it all in perfect harmony, i usually have to compromise and grab this guitar for this tone or grab that guitar, not any more.
At the moment I'm at University studying music and I only have one electric guitar that I use and absolutely love. The guitar is a Schecter Blackjack ATX, super strat style guitar with two Seymour Blackouts in it. I love the pickups for metal and are quite versatile, but I'm looking for something passive, a bit more versatile and less hot than the Blackouts. I'm looking for something that can produce great note definition and can cut it for a metal gig one night and a blues/soul gig the next. Any recommendations? I'm also looking to add a coil tap feature on the bridge and neck
One last thought, I was considering a Pearly Gate for the neck and Nazgul for the bridge? I just wanted something different drom the 59 and JB. The Whole Lotta humbuckers isn't what I was quite looking for.
I'm torn between this and the black winter, which do you think I would benefit most from? I really like a lot of mids and upper mids and I play grindcore, thrash, death metal, powerviolence, black metal And hardcore and I almost exclusively play in b standard. my guitar has an alder body with a maple neck and a rosewood fretboard. Also thank you for all the as some content btw!
Anyway we can get a direct comparison with the Back Winter Neck and Sentient that includes the variations of gain and tone applied? My life-force is draining here trying to decide. . .
@Seymour Duncan I know this will come to lots of factors, but how if I mix Invader on the bridge with Sentient in on the neck? I mostly play with Overdrive pedal kicking on an Amp. I just want huge Gain, while mantaining my guitar tone on Neck not too Bold and the Bridge not too Sharp. Any suggestions?
joe griffin You could always go with a Custom Custom or a Custom 5. They would add warmth and a bit of vintage hotness. However if you’d want more versatility, go with a ‘59 or a Duncan Distortion
joe griffin for clean tone something like a Vintage humbucker for brighter sharp cleans or a 59 or even a blues for more rounded tone. The Whole Lotta Trembucker is underrated too so check that out
I'm upgrading an Epi Lucille as an all black build. If I wanted, can I order a set of sentient pickups housed in the Duncan "Blackout" pickup cover, or even in a black cover that doesn't have pole screws?
I just bought a Les Paul Studio and want to replace the pickups. I have a strat with a 59 in the neck and JB in the bridge. What pickups would you recommend for my Les Paul that will give me more out put than a 59 and JB.? I play blues,rock with a jamband style. Thanks
More output than the 59 would be the Whole Lotta Humbucker (a set sounds great in an LP for jam band stuff). The JB is a really high output pickup, and as you get higher in output (Invader?) you round off the highs, and wind up with a pickup only good for serious gain. I'd go for a lower-than-JB-output for the bridge, though. You'll gain a more touch-sensitive sound that is better for bluesy rock.
Ok, so the Whole Lotta humbucker will also give clearity and I should put a JB in the bridge? I love high output but I need clearity. Ya know? And thanks for responding.
I see you asked about the Nazgul in another video. The JB is a better choice for what you want, but it has an upper mid spike..it is the classic 80s hard rock humbucker.
Hey guys... i need some help. Im modding my jackson dinky. It has one general tone and one general volume knob. Im gonna put a SD sentient/nazgul pickup kit on there and id like to be able to coil split the nazgul.. i dont really need a tone for the sentient. So it would just be the coil split(tone) for the nazgul and a general volume knob Is this possible and if yes... what do i need for this?? (Im new to modding so im kind of confused)
+Seymour Duncan thanks! I really dig the chugs tge Nazgul can produce and i was wondering if they would sound good for fast downpicks. I'll check out the Pegasus.
+seymour duncan I'm torn between the sentient and jazz to be paired with a full shred on bridge of hardtail rg prestige. standard make. basswood body, maple neck, rosewood board. what do you recommend? tuning would be drop c
Sentient modern tones, 59 sweet classic tone. Sentient is no doubt versatile, but its clean tone is unlike the vintage clean tones from blues player, or players like John Mayer, Mateus Asato
I love to use the neck pickup for solos and the sentient seems great, but will it be a combo that can do everything from blues to metal? or only from hard rock to metal?
The JB is a little aggressive for a true blues tone. You might look at something like the 59/Custom Hybrid to get a good combination of both blues & metal tones.
Did you put the sentient in the neck position I to have an Invader in the bridge position and I was going to put the sentient in neck position if you did it get back to me thanks
I have myself a neck-thru 24 5/8" scale MIK B.C. Rich Mockingbird ST w/ honeyburst finish (mahogany w/ ebony fretboard) with Seymour Duncan JB/Jazz pups in it, but I'm looking for a bit more output. Would you guys recommend the Nazgul/Sentient pickups?
Go with the Nazgul/Sentient if you want a more modern, seriously heavy detuned sound, perfect for complex progressive metal. Go with Pegasus/Sentient if you are a little more diverse, play articulate solos, and love a great clean sound too.
This is the type of stuff I typically play when left to my own devices, in D standard mainly (played on an Ibanez JS24P w/ Dimarzios which push pretty hard): soundcloud.com/daniel-baber/personal-hell-mashup Although I'd like to be able to still have some versatility and play this guitar on the worship team at church ;). So would you choose Nazgul or Pagasus?
what combination would you recommend for a guitar that has a p90 in the neck position and a humbucker in the bridge? I primarily play modern metal and post metal
The Sentient is a lot clearer sounding than the darker Invader. If you like a vastly different tonal change between the neck and bridge, then it will work. Usually, most people like the neck & the bridge to be closer tonally, so I'd recommend the Pegasus or Nazgul..but there are no rules here.
I'm thinking of doing the same on my 7 string. I would love to hear what someone thinks that has this. I've got the custom 5 and I'm going to get a sentient or 59.
That's my plan except I'm using the Duncan switching humbucker trim rings, I purchased an SE custom 24 that had those put in by prior owner, and now those are in a couple of of my guitars. Never had any issues, they just work.
His magnificent goat beard playing a guitar would be awesome. Wow I didn't even notice the similarities until you pointed it and his lack of a closer out.
I regretted buying this. It's good for darker sounding guitar. Yes it's articulate, but mine having a maple neck with 24 frets makes it too ice picky. I think I should go for a 59 instead

Not kidding.
One of the few pickups that I ever bother tweaking the tone nob for.
Now that is the most versatile neck pickup out of all of them so far I would say!
I just put one these in a 90 les paul and it's incredible.It's very articulate, better than any alnico 2 pickup.
Amazing pickup. Got it today, absolutely love it. What I was looking for
Love this neck pickup in my Les Paul with 50's wiring and Centralab pots (all above 580k).
Probably the most balanced pickup I've ever owned. I'm still getting used to the Pegasus in the bridge. This is the first guitar that I find myself gravitating more toward the neck pickup than the bridge.

Just installed a Pegasus/ Sentient. Love the combo almost as much as my JB/ Full Shred combo. Great job Seymour Duncan.
John Hardin Which model JB, brah?

For the neck, and for the styles you mention, you might want to check out the Jazz, the Sentient, and (for blues rock), the Whole Lotta Humbucker.
I really like the Sentient pickup in my Esp. In fact, it may unseat the Dimarzio liquifire that's been in my main player PRS for about a decade. It can be a little noisier and unforgiving than the Liquifire and that takes a little more effort to control but the attack and cleans are amazing. The Pegasus, however, is another story. Without a doubt, its the worst pickup I've ever played.
I've been thinking about buying Pegasus - Sentient set.
What's wrong with the Pegasus pickup?
Current favorite neck pickup, and it’s looking like it’ll stay that way for awhile now that I actually have one..
I'd like to put this in the neck position of an Epiphone ES-335. It's a darker sounding guitar and want to add some clarity when using gain, without it becoming shrill.

Monster player
One last thought, I was considering a Pearly Gate for the neck and Nazgul for the bridge? I just wanted something different drom the 59 and JB. The Whole Lotta humbuckers isn't what I was quite looking for.
The Nazgul is very heavy and modern sounding. If that is the tone you love, then go for it!

Thank you. I want a good well balance clean tone. And with a good coil split sound as well.
joe griffin for clean tone something like a Vintage humbucker for brighter sharp cleans or a 59 or even a blues for more rounded tone. The Whole Lotta Trembucker is underrated too so check that out
I want this in my Jackson and a black winter in the neck.
Nazgul and Sentient into full mahogany body/neck? Makes sense?
I'm upgrading an Epi Lucille as an all black build. If I wanted, can I order a set of sentient pickups housed in the Duncan "Blackout" pickup cover, or even in a black cover that doesn't have pole screws?
Which is the best for replacing stock PU PRS SE? 59', Jazz or Sentient? To play Pop, Rock modern
Need opinion 🙏
Would this in the neck match the Omega in the bridge?
I just bought a Les Paul Studio and want to replace the pickups. I have a strat with a 59 in the neck and JB in the bridge. What pickups would you recommend for my Les Paul that will give me more out put than a 59 and JB.? I play blues,rock with a jamband style. Thanks
More output than the 59 would be the Whole Lotta Humbucker (a set sounds great in an LP for jam band stuff). The JB is a really high output pickup, and as you get higher in output (Invader?) you round off the highs, and wind up with a pickup only good for serious gain.

Hey guys, how about Pearly Gates 8-string?
mordentus Custom Shop can do it.
sentient for bridge too!
Hey guys... i need some help.
Im modding my jackson dinky.
It has one general tone and one general volume knob.
Im gonna put a SD sentient/nazgul pickup kit on there and id like to be able to coil split the nazgul.. i dont really need a tone for the sentient.
So it would just be the coil split(tone) for the nazgul and a general volume knob
Is this possible and if yes... what do i need for this??
(Im new to modding so im kind of confused)
ROCK ON
JB/Sentient combo for neo classical type stuff? I like the 59 in the neck but wouldnt mind a bit more mids the what the 59 offers
This would be a great combo...so would a Pegasus/Sentient for more modern shred.
Thanks guys!! Ill check out the pegasus now. Love ya pick ups!!
nazgul vs pegasus. which one would be better for playing thrash?
+ZAZ BArCA Nazgul sounds more Death Metal to me, rather than Thrash. For thrash, either the Pegasus, or the Custom.
+Seymour Duncan thanks! I really dig the chugs tge Nazgul can produce and i was wondering if they would sound good for fast downpicks. I'll check out the Pegasus.
+ZAZ BArCA The Nazgul sounds amazing for fast downpicking, but is a more modern sounding pickup than something good for classic thrash.
+Seymour Duncan what about leads? I need some good high end but most importantly very clear pick attack that cuts though the mix.
For thrash, between the Nazgul & Pegasus...well, both are really modern for thrash, but I'd go with Pegasus here.
+seymour duncan I'm torn between the sentient and jazz to be paired with a full shred on bridge of hardtail rg prestige. standard make. basswood body, maple neck, rosewood board. what do you recommend? tuning would be drop c
I'd go with the Jazz...Sentient might sound too modern.
+Seymour Duncan thank you Duncan!
Is that an sh-4 jb in the bridge?
Gerry Trevino if you had a choice what would you pick sentient or 59
Sentient modern tones, 59 sweet classic tone. Sentient is no doubt versatile, but its clean tone is unlike the vintage clean tones from blues player, or players like John Mayer, Mateus Asato
is the sentient (neck) and jb (bridge) a good combo?
Absolutely! You get more of a great hard rock vibe than a progressive metal vibe, but that combo works really well.
I love to use the neck pickup for solos and the sentient seems great, but will it be a combo that can do everything from blues to metal? or only from hard rock to metal?
The JB is a little aggressive for a true blues tone. You might look at something like the 59/Custom Hybrid to get a good combination of both blues & metal tones.
How does it mix with an invader in the bridge for 80s thrash tones, looking for something with a clear warm clean tone.
Did you put the sentient in the neck position I to have an Invader in the bridge position and I was going to put the sentient in neck position if you did it get back to me thanks
I'm going to get a sh-6 in the bridge, and a sentient in the neck. Would you think that this is a good combo?
Absolutely. These should work very well together.
is the sentient and the black winter pickup a good match
J Thomas ok thanks👍

Although I'd like to be able to still have some versatility and play this guitar on the worship team at church ;). So would you choose Nazgul or Pagasus?
Sounds like the Nazgul is the one.
Would I be able to split the coils and get a tele-like sound? Cause that's what I was basically doing last night with the JB/Jazz.
It is 4 conductor, so yes.
Would it pair with a Perpetual Burn or would be better a '59?
Out of those two, Perpetual Burn would be best.
what combination would you recommend for a guitar that has a p90 in the neck position and a humbucker in the bridge? I primarily play modern metal and post metal
I like the Custom P90 in the neck along with a Pegasus bridge. We can even build a Sentient in a P90 form factor if you order from the Custom Shop!
Aaron Mendoza how about phat cat?sph humbucker size p90
it is strong than what i expact
Only comes in matte black, not gloss black like other models?
You can order it in gloss as a Floor Shop Custom.
Nice. Didnt know yall had this. Pretty cool
You may not even not recognise his face, but when you see Laboga cabs it's Darek Wawrzyniak
Does anybody know the name of this guitarist, and which bridge pickup he's using in this video?
Would a Full Shred Bridge work with a Sentient Neck?
If you are after a bright, cutting sound, absolutely. The outputs and tones will complement each other.
Anyone consider putting one of these in a les Paul? I have a LPC currently with sh11 custom custom in the bridge. Any suggestions for the neck..?
Are these active or passive pickups
Passive
sentient and invader is a good match?
The Sentient is a lot clearer sounding than the darker Invader. If you like a vastly different tonal change between the neck and bridge, then it will work. Usually, most people like the neck & the bridge to be closer tonally, so I'd recommend the Pegasus or Nazgul..but there are no rules here.
Seymour Duncan the problem is I like the darker sound of the invader and the clarity of the sentient. Pegasus is brighter than nazgul?
To my ears, the Nazgul is brighter. The Pegasus is more balanced.
Hi, what mast pickup would you recommend to combine with a sh-8 bridge invader? Thank you
custom 5 / sentient? anyone ever try this?
I'm thinking of doing the same on my 7 string. I would love to hear what someone thinks that has this. I've got the custom 5 and I'm going to get a sentient or 59.
That's my plan except I'm using the Duncan switching humbucker trim rings, I purchased an SE custom 24 that had those put in by prior owner, and now those are in a couple of of my guitars. Never had any issues, they just work.
WarOwl, is that you?
His magnificent goat beard playing a guitar would be awesome. Wow I didn't even notice the similarities until you pointed it and his lack of a closer out.
I'm going Jazz > Pearly Gates > Sentient > Alnico Pro II > 59'. Just my opinion though. Each to his/her own. :)
I regretted buying this. It's good for darker sounding guitar. Yes it's articulate, but mine having a maple neck with 24 frets makes it too ice picky. I think I should go for a 59 instead
3:14
3:30
Ya know. I got to the end of the vid. The pearly gates did sound way better with the clean chords than the sentient
Kinda has an opeth-like tone
