Considering the profile of the Schecter C-1 Ink Bomb’s foundational tonewoods, the proper pickups were needed to prime this powerhouse for premium performances. Schecter’s never been shy about experimenting with sounds, and the company’s decision to outfit this C-1 with a dyad of Seymour Duncan alt.metal Blackout humbuckers is endemic of its commitment to tailored support that’s equal parts pliable and precise. These active pickups were crafted with a particular strain of down-tuned playing in mind — one that balances rhythmic grooves with intricate licks through the combined lens of heavy-hitting haymakers that lower tunings support. Tight lows, rich harmonics, and muscular mids abound; palm-muted and syncopated playing greatly benefits from the alt.metal Blackouts’ distinctive voicing, carefully contouring your sound and imparting just enough color to enrich your axe’s natural sonic attributes.
