A Classic Inspired by Vintage Pickups in the Seymour Duncan Range

The "59 Model" is designed to recapture the spirit of late 1950s humbuckers, with a very musical balance and excellent playing response. In the bridge version (SH-1B), it retains this warm signature while offering the definition needed to cut through a mix, whether you play clean, crunch, or with heavier distortion.

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

This pickup is aimed at guitarists who want a versatile humbucker capable of covering a wide range of registers without losing the "vintage" character. It excels in Country, Jazz, Blues, Funk, Classic Rock, and Heavy Rock. At the bridge, it provides presence for riffs and clear articulation for fast passages, while remaining sensitive to right-hand nuances and guitar volume.

Split, 4 Conductors, and Frequency Response: A Highly Usable Palette

Thanks to its 4 conductors, the SH-1B-4C is easily wired for coil splitting, series/parallel, or phase options depending on your electronics. The split coil mode delivers clearer, snappier tones, useful for funk or airy arpeggios, while retaining the ability to instantly switch back to humbucker mode for thicker leads. Its resonance and frequency peak help maintain clarity, especially with gain pedals, while the black finish discreetly blends on most guitars.
