Seymour Duncan SH-16 ’59 Custom Hybrid Humbucker Pickup – Nickel Cover

The Perfect Pickup Mixture

What happens if you mix and match the coils on two different humbuckers? Well, Seymour Duncan’s SH-16 ’59 Custom Hybrid humbuckers are proof that wild sonic experiments sometimes pay off! This pickup features one coil taken from the ’59 Model Bridge and one coil taken from the Duncan Custom Model for a hybrid tone that’s loaded with an upper-midrange punch and plenty of harmonic clarity. AJ’s Music & The Music Man guitarists find that the SH-16’s sharp bite is ideal for players looking to venture into high-gain metal and hard rock territory — the Alnico V bar magnet tightens up your bass response, keeping your low-end riffage from getting too flabby. Plus, the SH-16’s wax-potted construction ensures that when you do turn up the gain, your tone remains squeal-free!
