MagTone Dark Matter – Active EMG Humbucker Module
Dark Matter is an active EMG humbucker module for MagTone guitars, developed for players seeking uncompromising clarity, tight response, and maximum definition in high-gain applications.
Equipped with two active EMG humbuckers, the module delivers a focused, low-noise tone with fast attack — ideal for modern metal productions, drop tunings, and precise rhythm playing.
