Seymour Duncan SH-13 Dimebucker Bridge (Black)

The legendary Dimebucker bridge pickup captures the essence of Dimebag Darrell’s iconic sound with its distinctive crunchy pick attack and scooped midrange character. This signature humbucker was designed to Dime’s exact specifications, featuring just the right amount of saturation that provides thick crunch with a subtle sag when you really dig in. The pickup combines a full, tight low-end response with ceramic magnet construction and dual stainless-steel blades to create the massive tone that came straight from the mind of the late, great Darrell Abbott.

In a 2004 interview, Dimebag himself described his pickup’s character: “It’s very saturated—not to the point where its overly fuzzy, but it has a smooth and crunchy distortion tone. It will give you some extra gain, but it won’t go so far that your sound breaks up and is going crazy. You get that warm tone with the distortion mixed in and it has the low end that’s kicking you in the butt while the top end is cutting your face off in the right way, but not ripping your face off. If you ever listen to a Pantera record, that’s what you’ll hear through this pickup.”

Hand built in Santa Barbara, California, the Dimebucker features premium construction with a ceramic bar magnet, dual stainless-steel blades, and 4-conductor lead wire for versatile wiring options. Each pickup is vacuum wax potted to ensure squeal-free performance. For the complete Darrell Abbott setup, pair it with a ’59 Model bridge pickup in the neck position, or opt for the complete Dimebag Set covering both positions.
