How Long Before Nazgul/Pegasus/Sentient get a production 6-String Version?

[RipperShred]

I really like all three of these pickups, but lean towards the Pegasus in the bridge just because it's a little more all-purpose. It was about a year or so into the Black Winter 6 string model's production before they made 7 string version production models, so anybody have any thoughts on when we'll see these awesome 7 string pickups get 6 string models? I can't say who/where but I've seen prototypes of a BW/Sentient 6 string set "out there", so I'm sure it's at least crossed SD's mind. I'd personally buy all three p'ups, but can't afford Custom Shop prices on them so general public production models would be sweet.

Doing a search and it appears you may be right sir. I especially like what Scott Marceau said; "Be patient for a few more months... "

... So apparently I'm just behind the curve here. That's awesome!

i just got my custom shop nazgul sentient 6 string pickups i couldnt' wait for them to be released so i ordered a set from MJ. They sound great , i like them better then my black winter set . my sentient came in at 7.75K and the nazgul read 13.65K DC resistance . aweseome pickups .

I love my Black Winters but they will be getting kicked when I can get 6 string Nazgûl/Sentient (cant place a custom shop order from the UK Apparently, without jumping through some pretty stupid hoops)

The N/S set are my all time favourite pickups, i struggle to find anything else that meets the mark.

What are your thoughts on the differences? Also, do you have any comparisons to a SD Distortion.

I used to have a Distortion 7 in my 7620. It had what I consider to be the recognisable, "brittle" Distortion tone, great output, with awesome top end harmonics, but a little fizzy and undefined when playing chords.

The Nazgûl is different, the main thing is string definition, it takes some getting used to with the Nazgûl, it will highlight any tuning issues as each string seems to be very clearly vouced, through my setup (7620-gate-5150ii-eq-fx-gate-5150ii) its almost like running a clean channel in stereo with the lead.

Its got strongly voiced top end but its not shrill.

When I was looking at guitars, there was a 6 string Washburn Parallelaxe (s?) guitar that had the Nazgul/Sentient in it.

Looking forward to getting my hands on them! Pegasus/Sentient in my 7 string has become my favorite combo. Having that same combo in my favorite 6 string would be fantastic!
