Swineshead Releases Venom 7 Pickup

January 29, 2008

UK based pickup manufacturer Swineshead Pickups has introduced a new high output 7 string humbucker called the Venom 7. The new model is based upon one of their most popular six string humbuckers, the Venom.

The Venom 7 combines high output with a bright, clear tone which allows for great clarity across all 7 strings whether it is played through the cleanest amp or the heaviest distortion. 14 black hex head polepieces and a large ceramic magnet work together to provide a powerful and responsive tone that is a great choice for metal and hard rock.

Like all other Swineshead pickups the Venom is available in a wide range of colours, woods and finishes. Plastic Venoms are £ 59.95 each whilst the wooden Venoms are £74.95 each. Postage is free worldwide on orders over £70. Each pickup is handmade in the English village of Swineshead and comes with all the necessary screws to mount it in your guitar.
