The Seymour Duncan SH-1N '59 Model brings vintage P.A.F. tone to seven–string guitars with the warm, articulate character that defined classic rock and blues tones. This neck–position humbucker delivers open, detailed sound with a sweet top end response that honours the original Patent Applied For pickups of the 1950s while meeting the demands of extended–range playing. Alnico 5 magnets and USA construction ensure authentic vintage voicing with the clarity modern players expect.
The pickup measures 9.4k DCR in the bridge position, providing vintage output levels that clean up beautifully with volume adjustments and respond dynamically to picking attack. Wiring options include both single–conductor braided shield cable and four–conductor shielded cable, allowing coil–splitting and series/parallel configurations. The passive humbucker design requires no battery or active preamp, maintaining pure signal path from string to amplifier with minimal interference.
