Replaced my Duncan Solar in my Solar A2.6 with the Black Heaven set. I was at first skeptical if the Black Heaven would suit me, because they felt a bit undergained compared to my go-to pickup at that time, the Seymour Duncan SH5, but after a few days of getting used to them I have to say - these are the best pickups I have ever played, and I've been through a few!

They are in the lighter side gain-wise, but they are so focussed, clear and punchy, that using a high-gain amp brings exactly the right amount of push and punch!

I am in absolute love with these bad boys and will get them for my main guitar, a Solar A1.6 as well.

Communication with Johan was good, we got all things sorted out quite quickly. Originally I planned installing the Black Heavens in my A1.6 with 50mm spacing. There was a small mishap on the spacing and got sent the 52.6mm, but that was also partially my fault due to me bombarding Johan prior with questions about the 52.6mm string spacing and then changed my mind and ordered the 50mm. Johan was absolutely willing to trade in the "faulty" spacing, but as fate had it, the A2.6 had the 52.6mm spacing, so in there they went. And this guitar went from "I don't like to play it" to "this is my favorite guitar to play", due to the pickups, so a very happy accident!

Shipping took a bit, like 2 weeks or so, but absolutely fine - these things after all are partially made exact to order, and stuff just takes time.

So, anytime again, and in fact I am in the process of buying yet another set for my A1.6 to make the black heavens truly "my pickup"!

I put these in my Epiphone Wilshire and they play absolutely beautifully. The neck is warm, but not muddy. The bridge has a present and somewhat polite bite. They blend very well together in the humbucking middle position. An inspiring upgrade

I cannot be more satisfied than that. Perfect body, perfect clarity of sound on the lowest notes and perfect balance between bridge and neck sound. I needed to change the pickups on my 8-string and didn't want the usual active pickups sound. These Lundgrens are clearly better in every aspect. If you want a powerful and at the same time clear and well-defined sound, you can play it safe with these pickups.

Wow! This is just what the Dr. ordered ! A very crisp, clean, and white noiseless overdrive pickup. But yet a warm, smooth and bright clean sound. And yes , it’s a hot pickup. But so clean. Also, a very unforgiving pickup. If need be you will become a more honed player. This pickup will hear cleanly “ the slop “. Very impressed with the build , sound quality and sound diversity. For what it’s worth. I’ve played a few in the last 30+ yrs. I really like this one !

Hardest pickup on the market

Perfect passive replacement for the stock active SD Blackouts on my 8 string Schecter!

I'm using the Lundgren M series pickups for 15+ years now and it always delivers. best pickups for low tunings!

I have been thinking about doing something about the tone of my 7-string Jackson V guitar for a long time. I have never managed to adjust the pickups or the amplifier so that the tone of the thickest strings is clear and with sufficient attack, always sounded blurry and diffuse. My guitar colleague has Lundgren M6 on his and I got to test it on my amplifier and "voila", there was the tone I was looking for. That's why I ordered a kit M7C and now my guitar sounds fantastic and is real fun to play.
Crystal clear tone on all strings and heavy body in the midrange.
It will be a dream to record the next album with this setup!

Thank you Johan for leading me in the right direction!

Sökt efter en pickup som ger mig soundet som The Shadows har. Valde mellan 50:s Formvar och 60:s Vintage, mitt val blev den sistnämnda. Helnöjd med resultatet! Kan varmt rekommendera Lundgrens pickups. / Urban

Loaded these into a Legator G8. Installation was very straight forward and the fit was perfect. I wired them up without a coil split option. These pickups absolutely deliver! They hit heavy with high gain and sound mesmerizing with clean ambient tones all while maintaining the crisp clarity lower range instruments must have. Shipped lightning fast even all the way to California, US. Thank you Lundgren!

Extremely articulate but still girthy as heck. Splits and parallel wiring sound fantastic for cleans.

What a pickup, a chugg monster of a pickup, sounds massive and ultra violence like. Kinda reminds me of a bareknuckle aftermath but with even more, tons of lowend thats still tight and the upper midrange it has is deadly. The way this handles super low tunings is something special

It even exceeded my expectations, I don't need to tweak amps that much anymore to get some good tones, it's pretty much plug and play and it can take a huge amount of high-end without it sounding harsh.

Ordered the pickups and was met with a 3 week waiting list, but i had a gig in 2 weeks. Contacted Lundgren and was met immediately with a "lets solve this!" attitude. Got the pickups a week later and made the gig!
Great service!!
