The Seymour Duncan Slash LLT APH-2 is a bridge–position passive humbucker developed to replicate the aggressive midrange and sustain of Slash's original Derrig Les Paul copy. Unlike the vintage–spec Alnico 2 Pro pickups that voiced his AFD–era guitars, this signature model uses a unique magnet wire and winding specification calibrated specifically for Gibson Les Paul Signature instruments. With a DC resistance of 8.9k and an Alnico 2 bar magnet, this pickup delivers the thick crunch and singing sustain heard across Guns N' Roses, Velvet Revolver, and solo recordings.
Hand–built in Santa Barbara using traditional construction methods, the APH-2 features a nickel silver bottom plate, maple spacer, paper tape, and wax potting identical to the units installed by Slash's guitar tech Ace Bergman. This modern–appointed Gold–covered variant includes short ear mounting legs for broader guitar compatibility and direct mounting, plus 4–conductor cable enabling coil splitting, series/parallel wiring, and phase switching options. The LLT designation indicates this pickup is made to order, adding approximately three to four weeks to the standard delivery timeframe.
