A signature pickup bred for metal guitar wizardry.
The Seymour Duncan Custom Shop Brandon Ellis Dyad Parallel Axis humbucker pickup provides high-output tone tailored for shredding. Combining the hot bridge coil of a Parallel Axis Trembucker Distortion and the crisp highs of a Crazy 8's neck coil, this hybrid humbucker produces an aggressive yet articulate sound perfect for the virtuosic playing of The Black Dahlia Murder's guitarist Brandon Ellis. The dual-slotted pole pieces provide better string-to-string balance and clarity than traditional humbuckers, allowing complex chords and lightning-fast arpeggios to ring through clearly. Despite its high output, the Dyad offers a surprisingly versatile range of tones. Flipping the pickup upside down accesses its warmer, chewier side for a fuller midrange ideal for chunky riffing or jazzier chords. Built to Ellis's exacting standards, this pickup captures the tone that has become his signature. Serious shredders seeking to emulate Ellis's incendiary style will find their perfect match in the Dyad's fusion of power and precision.
