application
Warm, moderate-output humbucker. Great for jazz, blues, classic rock and slide.
description
The Alnico 2 magnet and moderate windings
yield a warm, sweet tone with more natural string vibration for great
sustain. Classic rock players who get their distortion from the amp
rather than the pickup love the APH-1. It allows them to back off the
crunch and get beautiful clean tones with softer attack. Compared to
the '59, the Alnico II Pro has a rounder sound with a spongier bass
response. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable and no logo.
complete setup
Often the APH-1 is used in both neck and
bridge positions. Or, in the neck with a higher output pickup like an
SH-11 Custom Custom or SHPG-1b Pearly Gates for heavier rock or hotter
blues sounds from the bridge position.
guitars
For brighter toned instruments. Works especially
well with maple and ebony fingerboards. Also works great with hollow
and semi-hollow body guitars.
available mods
Nickel or gold-plated cover. Trembucker. Seymour Duncan logo.
