Common USA-made active humbuckers use unbalanced inputs in a differential preamp. The problem is, an unbalanced differential preamp is not very effective at cancelling hum. The AHB-1 Blackouts captures the tone that players want in an active design, but using balanced inputs. The result is 12dB to 14dB less noise, plus more lows, more highs, and more output. Simply put, Blackouts have more tone than other active pickups. Comes with a shielded, 3-conductor hookup cable. All versions come with all necessary mounting hardware, including pots, jack, and a battery clip.

Available in individual neck and bridge models, as a two-pickup set, in black cover.
