The Seymour Duncan Slash LLT APH-2 Humbucker Set delivers the ferocious tone Slash achieved on Guns N' Roses, Velvet Revolver, and solo recordings. Developed when his Gibson Les Paul Signature models sounded different from his original AFD Les Paul, these humbuckers use a unique mag wire and winding spec combined with alnico 2 bar magnets to recreate the sustain, crunch, and midrange character of his original Derrig Les Paul copy. Hand-built in Santa Barbara with traditional nickel silver bottom plates, maple spacers, paper tape, and wax potting.
The neck pickup measures 8.3k DCR while the bridge sits at 8.9k, both wound to the exact specifications Slash's tech Ace Bergman installs in the guitarist's touring guitars. This modern–appointed version features short ear mounting legs for broader guitar compatibility and direct mounting capability, plus four-conductor cable enabling coil splitting, series/parallel wiring, and phase switching options. The LLT designation indicates these pickups are made to order upon purchase, adding approximately three to four weeks to standard delivery times.
Identical to production stock units pulled for Slash himself, these passive humbuckers retain the original 1980s construction methods Seymour Duncan pioneered. The alnico 2 magnets provide the warmth and compression needed to push stock Les Pauls toward that signature midrange presence and harmonic complexity. Each set arrives with nickel covers and maintains the tonal response that defined some of rock's most recognisable guitar work across multiple decades and musical projects.
