Seymour Duncan Humbucker Pickup Set

The SH-4 JB is an iconic hot-rodded humbucker that has been a favorite for over 30 years, suitable for a wide range of genres from heavy blues to heavy metal. This humbucker is renowned for its powerful output while maintaining clear highs, aggressive harmonics, and the perfect blend of sustain and distortion. It can easily transition from sweet warm tones to raw rock 'n' roll. In comparison to the SH-14 Custom 5, the JB offers a stronger treble detail and some players pair it with 250K pots to soften the highs. It comes with a four-conductor hookup cable and is best suited for balanced and warm instruments, particularly those with rosewood fingerboards. Notable players who use the SH-4 JB include Paul Stanley from KISS, Gary Rossington from Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ty Tabor from King's X, and Dave Mustaine from Megadeth.

On the other hand, the SH-1n is a versatile P.A.F.-type humbucker that is perfect for country, jazz, blues, funk, classic rock, and heavy rock genres. It is important to note that this is the single conductor model. This humbucker delivers a vintage-correct sound from the late 1950s, providing warm and crystalline clean tones as well as full and bright distorted tones with smooth sustain. Classic features of the SH-1n include plain enamel wire, a long-legged bottom plate, vintage single conductor cable, and no logo. In comparison to the SH-55 Seth Lover, the '59 has slightly more scooped mids and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance. It is best suited for balanced and warm instruments, especially those with mahogany bodies and rosewood fingerboards. Notable players who use the SH-1n include Ben Harper, Robben Ford, Mike Einzinger from Incubus, and Robert Smith from The Cure.
