Seymour Duncan SH-1n '59 Model BLK 4-Conductor

Description

11101-01-4c Designed to deliver classic P.A.F. tone with a modern build and 4-conductor cable to offer more wiring and switching options, the '59 vintage output humbucker pickup’s detailed tone and sweet high-end make 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, the Alnico 5 bar magnet and vacuum wax potting make it compatible with lighter 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 model is one of our most popular pickups because it’s so versatile. Like its bridge-position brother, the '59 neck is designed in the spirit of the original P.A.F. humbuckers of the 1950s, with a sweet sustain and a warm, full tone that still possesses a clear attack. We’ve made a few refinements to slightly modernize the design and make it more adaptable to different styles. The high end is slightly boosted for improved pick-attack clarity and the mids are a little scooped out for an open, smooth sound that’s great for preserving the clarity of individual notes in a chord. 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 Telecasters with humbucker routes. 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, long-legged nickel-silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire, and no logo.
