Our M model was the first pickup we designed for Meshuggahs Fredrik Thordendahl and his 7-string guitars. In jiddish, meshuggah means roughly crazy/mad and we think you´ll fall madly in love with a model M pickup with lots of power and attitude. Fredrik Thordendahl says, This pickup is out of this world. The pickup is well known both for high power and clarity. The design is a combination of a unique winding and a ceramic magnet placed under the pickup to give you more of everything and caused many players to give up active pickups. With lots of gain on your amp, harmonics is a piece of cake. The powerful high output M model humbucker let your notes come through even with lots of distortion on your amp. The pickup has lots of low end.

The best. Period!!!
I've finally found the pickup that gives me the metal tone I've always wanted. Fat, angry and great low end. This lets me have solid palm mutes (even really choked out ones) in any tuning range. These pickups offer clarity AND fatness, which is amazing.
I've bought an M6 for my 30" baritone tuned an octave lower, and an M7 for my 7string in drop A. Both guitars now really sing. Of course, if you are looking for a classic rock tone, there are other pickups. But the M series is a win for metal, at least in my book. Ordering another M7 soon for my new custom built guitar.
I also wanted to thank Johan for the quick communication and being a really nice guy.

I have the M7 in the bridge and the Heaven 57 in the neck (as for lundgern recommendation) in my Ibanez 1077xl for years now and I do not plan to change them out, ever!
I gotta say it's the best all around metal pickup on the market from my experience, the clarity without loosing thickness is amazing, great for leads as well as heavy down tuned music without changing the settings for each every time
paired with a sweeter and rounder neck pickup like the heaven 57, you got yourself a very versatile combo that can probably do it all
I just wish there were more color options so I would get it for my other guitar which is outfitted with white pickups already lets say
well worth the price, thanks for lundgren for being a great guy and responding to emails quickly and giving good support to his customers
all the best!
The title explains itself, has great clarity and feels pretty balanced with that extra 'umph'
