Product Description
Seymour Duncan SH-1N4C BLK, Humbucker Original PAF Replica
There is not much left to say about the Seymour Duncan SH1. It is one of the most popular replacement pickups; especially when it is desired to replicate the well balanced sound of the the legendary PAF-Humbuckers of Seth Lover (the name is due to the bottom sticker "patent applied for"). For many guitarists this pickup is still the best, no screamer, it is way too classy to be that, ​​but it can sing like no other pickup. Particularly finicky musical gourmets attest SH1 even a touch more authenticity compared to several competitors - but clarification to that question could probably only be found by means of an AB comparison (which is very complex with pickups) and even then, certain judgements remain simply a matter of taste. In any case, a hot tip!
The SH 1 N4C is particularly suitable for the neck position and can be combined perfectly with output-stronger bridge pickups
This version is delivered with a 4-wire connection cable and thus additional circuits (single coil/parallel) are possible.
