Seymour Duncan - HD-Z-S Hades Gates Set Zebra

The Seymour Duncan Hades Gates is a set of dual-coil passive humbuckers designed for guitarists who want a powerful, mid-forward, expressive sound inspired directly by Billy Gibbons. With their Zebra finish, these pickups offer not only a distinctive look, but above all a sound capable of crossing all styles from blues-rock to hard rock. Riffs become punchier, chords warmer, and solos take on a presence that stands out in the mix.

The neck pickup softens tones and enriches melodic passages, while the bridge pickup delivers plenty of punch for incisive leads. The use of Alnico II magnets ensures a dynamic response and natural sustain, while retaining clarity and articulation, even on the hottest saturations.

The real advantage of the Hades Gates over other humbuckers is their ability to faithfully reproduce Billy Gibbons' signature sound, while offering a slightly higher output for extra bite. Handcrafted in California, with 4-conductor wiring, they also allow split coil configurations for tonal variety. With this set, every note, every riff and every solo becomes a direct extension of your musical expression.
