A Tribute to the Original Humbucker, in the "Seth Lover" Spirit

The Seymour Duncan SH-55N-N "Seth Lover Model" was designed to capture the DNA of vintage humbuckers: natural dynamics, rich harmonic response, and balance that highlights the guitar's personality. In the neck position, it aims for a warm and detailed reproduction, with a slight and organic compression that remains very expressive to the touch, whether you play fingerstyle, with a pick, or in wide chords.

For Which Styles and Type of Guitarist?

Intended for guitarists seeking an authentic neck pickup, this SH-55N-N excels in country, jazz, blues, and classic rock. It is particularly comfortable with round clean tones, subtle crunches, and singing leads, with clarity that remains pleasant on low notes. If you prefer neck pickups that are too powerful or very modern, this model instead favors nuance, breathing, and an "old school" grain.
