A Classic in the Seymour Duncan "59 Model" Range
The SH-1B "59 Model" is inspired by the most sought-after vintage humbuckers, with a simple philosophy: to recapture the feel of a touch-responsive pickup, rich in nuances, capable of going from bright clean tones to singing crunch without effort. In this bridge version, it retains the vintage DNA while offering ideal sustain and clarity for riffs, chordal parts, and solos.
For Which Guitarists and Styles
Designed for the bridge position, this pickup is aimed at musicians seeking a sound that is both warm and articulate, with a great response to right-hand attack and guitar volume. It excels in country, jazz, blues, funk, classic rock, and easily handles heavy rock when pushed through an amp or gain pedal, all while maintaining definition.
