The Damocles™ are a full sounding high-gain active pickup set, perfect for Corey’s detuned progressive metal style.

As a founding member of metal titans Trivium, Corey Beaulieu is a driving force behind the band’s epic guitar work. To deliver their onslaught of chugging riffs and intricate leads, his go-to pickups have always been Seymour Duncan Blackouts® Active Humbuckers. To cut through Trivium’s monumental wall of guitars both live and in studio, Corey requested a specific voicing of his Blackouts® with increased presence, balance and clarity. The result of this modified voicing is the Corey Beaulieu Damocles™ Signature Blackouts® - a full sounding high-gain active pickup set perfect for Corey’s detuned progressive metal style. This powerful addition to the Blackouts® line-up is available in 6 and 7 string sets and singles, with active and passive mounts.
