Seymour Duncan Set SH-1n & b / Vintage Blues Set

Description

11108-05-B The Humbucker set composed of our neck and bridge 59 Model delivers warm, full, P.A.F. style tone to any dual humbucker instrument. While these vintage-style coils give the 59 Model an airy quality that keeps them firmly planted in the P.A.F. family, the alnico 5 bar magnet and vacuum wax potting were added to compensate for lighter guitar strings and louder amplifiers than were used in the 50s. The result is a pickup with tons of old-school tonal character, but with a brighter top end and a more compressed sound. The 59s are great for all types of rock and blues. In addition to the alnico 5 magnet and wax potting, we hand-build the 59 Model with a variety of traditional vintage treatments, such as 42AWG plain enamel magnet wire, long-legged nickel silver bottom plate, vintage-braided single-conductor push-back lead wire, and no logo. As with all our P.A.F. style pickups, the 59 Model is wound on Seymour's old Leesona winding machine from the first Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, MI.
