Seymour Duncan SH-1b '59 Model Gold 4-Conductor

Description

11101-05-Gc4c Designed to deliver the classic P.A.F. tone with a modern construction and 4-conductor cable for more wiring and switching options, the vintage-output '59 humbucker pickup with its detailed, articulate tone and sweet high end makes it the perfect choice for rock and blues. The '59 bridge model is a vintage-output humbucker that is great for rock, blues, and more. Its vintage-inspired coils give it an airy quality that is firmly in the P.A.F. family, and the alnico 5 bar magnet and vacuum wax potting make it compatible with lighter gauge guitar strings and louder amplifiers than were ever used in the 50s. The result is a pickup with tons of old-school tonal character, but with a brighter top end and a slightly more compressed sound. The '59 neck was born to accompany the '59 bridge, but countless players pair it with a high-output bridge humbucker, like a JB or Custom. It's also a popular choice for humbucker-routed Telecasters. Offered in standard 6-string humbucker and Trembucker spacings, the '59 model features a variety of traditional vintage treatments, such as 42AWG plain enamel magnet wire, nickel-silver long-legged bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire, and no logo.
