Seymour Duncan TB-12 Trembucker Screamin' Demon Pickup Gold Cover

The TB-12 Screamin' Demon is a high-output bridge pickup engineered for aggressive, articulate tones with controlled feedback and sustain. Hand-built in Santa Barbara, this trembucker delivers punchy character that cuts through dense mixes without sacrificing definition, making it a versatile workhorse for tight rhythm tones and soaring lead work alike.

Tone and Output Character

A 7 kHz resonant peak and elevated output emphasize midrange presence and harmonic clarity, ideal for high-gain applications where note separation matters. Vacuum wax potting eliminates microphonic squeal, ensuring stable, feedback-free performance at volume while remaining responsive to pick dynamics.

Design and Construction

The trembucker spacing accommodates wider pole piece spacing suited to bridge positions on guitars with wider string spacing. Construction combines one row of standard adjustable screws with one row of Allen head screws for flexible setup, while the nickel silver bottom plate contributes to the pickup's overall tonal profile and durability.
