The Seymour Duncan APH-1 Alnico 2 Pro is a dual coil, warm, moderate-output humbucker. Great for jazz, blues, classic rock and slide. This is a great pickup for all types of blues and rock.
The APH-2n Humbucker Neck pickup uses the soft treble attack and low string pull of an Alnico 2 bar magnet, combined with a special vintage output coil wind to create a warm, sweet tone that is smooth and full, with tons of natural sustain. The highs sound thick and really sing, while the lows are warm and buttery, giving you a pickup that is very sensitive to pick attack.
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 model, the Alnico II Pro has a rounder sound with a spongier bass response. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable and no logo.
Hand built in Santa Barbara, California, the Alnico 2 Pro humbuckers use an Alnico 2 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and are wax potted for squeal-free operation. |
