The Seymour Duncan SH-11 Custom Custom Bridge Humbucker - nickel. FREE shipping anywhere in the USA!
Application High output humbucker for use in bright guitars. Great for pop, country, blues, classic rock and heavy rock.
Description The Custom CustomTM is our SH-5 Duncan Custom humbucker with an Alnico II magnet for warm and smooth highs, more midrange, and a spongier bottom end than the SH-5. It's a good choice for players who need a traditional vintage tone with increased output. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable.
Complete setup Recommended for bridge position. Often a Custom Custom is paired with a Pearly Gates for bluesy P.A.F. tones in the neck.
Guitars For brighter toned instruments. Works especially well with maple and ebony fingerboards.
Available mods Nickel or gold-plated cover. Trembucker.
About the Guitars: We used a '60's Classic Les Paul with a fresh set of American Flyer 10-46 gauge strings.
About the Amps: We employed the "highest common denominator" philosophy in our amp selection. For clean tones, we used a silverface Fender Super Reverb with stock 4x10 "blue frame" speakers. We kept the Bright Switch "On" throughout. For crunch tones, we used a well-worn Marshall JCM 800 50 watt master volume head through a new Marshall 1960A Celestion®-loaded 4x12 cabinet. We plugged into the High output. With both amps we close miked straight-on with SM-57s through a Soundcraft Spirit Folio Mixer.
