<p>Before active pickups like his signature Blackouts&reg; became synonymous with Jeff Loomis&rsquo; sound in Nevermore, Arch Enemy and his solo work, Jeff&rsquo;s foundational experiences in sculpting his highly influential metal tone were forged by passive humbuckers, bought from guitar catalogues in the 1980s. The Noumenon&trade; Signature Humbuckers call back to those formidable years, as Jeff wanted an option to achieve the dynamics and control that passive pickups offer. The 7-string set is built with Alnico 5 magnets, necessary for maintaining tight low end and sharp attack. All Jeff Loomis Noumenon&trade; Signature Humbuckers are available with triangular feet bottom plates for standard humbucker routes and direct mounting in Jeff&rsquo;s signature guitars.</p>
