The SH-55B Seth Lover Humbucker for Bridge from Seymour Duncan is a vintage-style PAF pickup with a smooth, sweet tone. The pickup provides the ideal balance of warm, full-sounding low end with nice, sweet treble. The 2.5" alnico 2 bar magnet smoothes the high-end response, while the vintage output coils provide rich, harmonic content. Single notes have a singing quality and the un-potted nickel-silver cover gives the tone a piano-like percussive feel.
The SH-55B is hand-wound on Seymour's old Leesona winding machine from the early Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, MI, and features 42 AWG plain enamel mag wire, a single-conductor braided push-back lead wire, custom-machined metal and maple spacers, and a nickel-silver bottom plate. The SH-55B is carefully hand-built in Santa Barbara, CA. |
