By "dark" I'm assuming you mean tonally. It's made for the neck position of a guitar although some have used it in the bridge position too. A factor of how dark or bright it might sound would be the tone pot and the capacitor it's hooked up to, also the make of the guitar and the type of wood used would affect the tone of the pickup. If you're asking how physically "dark" the nickel plating is ........................... it's very polished like bright silver.

I would say it's not dark at all. It looks like shiny chrome. It's a mirror. And I I have it in my 61 reissue gs in both positions. I like them.

Yes, it would work well in the neck position. The nickel plating is not dark at all. It's shiny like chrome. You can visit your local music store to look at some before ordering online. ;-)

The Gibson '57 Classic Humbucker is awesome and the nickle cover does NOT make it sound dark at all. In fact, my view is that it's one of the best pickups ever made for rock, blues & jazz

No it is adjustable and you should have no problem with it. My neck is small also and it worked out great. Not to mention so many people that saw it wanted to know where I was able to get one in black. It is also good quality I was very happy with this purchase.

Yes it can be and isn't very noticeable. I have been wearing mine to work and it "hides well" under darker colors.

I think it would be if worn snug against neck. My dog wore it for a week and learned not to bark, now we only put it on once in awhile.

It is not dark. It is an ocean blue. I bought this cover for my mother in law and she loves it.

For me it serves the same purpose. I bought it because it looks better than the regular, white foam collars and I was able to get it in a smaller size. I have a very thin neck, and the regular white foam collars were always a bit large. This collar is much more comfortable and not so "medicinal" looking. Hope this answers your question.

Its not too dark.... If your good with tint go for it but me ... I wouldnt it would be to hard for me .. Its has a sticky backing which would be easy to stick to the visor but shaping it and making sure no bubles are trapped ... I wouldnt

that sounds like a good idea...I would like to know how you will do it...yes it is metallic not too bright but with a modest tone.

Not that dark. It doesnt matter since you really cant see the color when you put the case on

I find it pretty comfortable for my neck. Not sure about using the open end. I guess it would be a personal preferance.

I use it at night to prevent that very problem, and to prevent myself from snoring because my jaw can't drop with it on. It has eliminated a lot of neck pain for me since I've begun sleeping with it every night. It just takes a little getting used to because it can fit quite snuggly, but if put on right, it won't strangle you!

I agree with the other two answers. It's suited more for wearing around the neck.

Just tested the pillow cover with a very dark navy cloth, and it doesn't show through, although not as bright as with the white pillow. It's a wonderful tight woven fabric.

I've only used the dark band and no issues. I wear it continuously unless charging the "bit" or "bean".

It covers most but the back neck, you can get a seperate neck protector for that. Unlikely to be shot there though.

It does partially obscure the keyboard backlighting (I got the clear one, rather than black one) thinking it might work in the dark; it blocks much of the key lighting). I only use it in lighted conditions to reduce dust on/in the keys. I do not keep beverages nearby, but if someone does, it could provide protection in case of a spill (like at a coffee shop, a cafe or restaurant). I do like the shell casing I purchased as well. The bottom case has rubber pads that stabilizes the laptop on a smooth surface.

The heating pad is a U shape pad. Don't think it will stay wrapped around the neck.
