Seymour Duncan TB-5 Duncan Custom Trembucker (Black)

The Duncan Custom humbucker strikes the perfect balance between vintage warmth and modern aggression, offering what Seymour Duncan describes as a ‘P.A.F.-on-steroids’ sound that cuts through any mix. This medium output pickup utilises a small ceramic magnet paired with custom-wound coils to produce tight low frequencies, a distinctive upper midrange bump for added character and crunch, plus an airy high-end response that maintains clarity even under heavy distortion while still providing crystal-clear clean tones.

Particularly well-suited to warmer-sounding guitars with prominent midrange characteristics, the Duncan Custom has become a favourite choice for Les Paul and Paul Reed Smith players. It pairs exceptionally well with Jazz or ‘59 neck models, and actually forms one half of Seymour Duncan’s popular ‘59/Custom Hybrid humbucker combination.

Hand-built in Seymour Duncan’s Santa Barbara, California factory, each Duncan Custom features premium construction including a small ceramic bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, and 4-conductor lead wire that provides multiple wiring options. The pickup is vacuum wax potted to ensure squeal-free performance, making it a reliable choice for both studio and stage applications.
