The zebra APH-2N Slash Signature Neck Humbucker from Seymour Duncan offers the classic tone of Appetite for Destruction in a pickup. By using a custom mag wire and winding spec, combined with the alnico 2 bar magnet, Seymour Duncan was able to recreate the familiar sustain, crunch, and midrange that was so characteristic of the tone of Slash's original Derrig Les Paul copy. These pickups were originally designed in the '80s and voiced for use as the stock pickups in his signature model Gibson Les Paul, intending to give the stock guitars that same kind of magical tone.
The APH-2N pickups utilize the alnico 2 bar magnet, nickel-silver bottom plates with long mounting legs, single-conductor braided lead wire, maple spacers, paper tape, and wax potting. The APH-2N is carefully hand-built in Santa Barbara, CA. |
