From Our Research Team:Seymour Duncan Pickups: It's All About the ToneThe '59 Model SH-1 is Seymour Duncan's take on the classic Seth Lover PAF (Patent Applied For) humbucker that was found on the Gibson Les Paul in the late 1950s. The SH-1 sports plain enamel wire, a long-legged bottom plate, vintage-correct single-conductor cable, and the absence of a Seymour Duncan logo. This vintage recreation sports a slightly more scooped midrange than the Seth Lover model and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance. For flexible tones with vintage flair, the Duncan '59 Model SH-1 is a perfect fit.Seymour Duncan '59 Model SH-1 at a Glance:
Vintage look and sound The '59 Model SH-1 provides a late-'50s, vintage-correct, humbucker sound with warm and crystalline clean tones. Full and bright distorted tones with smooth sustain are available from this classic-style pickup. Classic appointments include plain enamel wire, long legged bottom plate, and vintage single conductor cable. Compared to the SH-55 Seth Lover, the '59 has slightly more scooped mids and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance. Complete setup Available in both neck and bridge models, a '59 neck is often used together with a hotter bridge pickup like the SH-4 JB or SH-13 Dimebucker for extra versatility. For balanced and warm instruments, the '59 Model SH-1 works especially well with mahogany bodies and rosewood fingerboards. Seymour Duncan '59 Model SH-1 Features:

Reviews'59 Model SH-1 in the bridge
by Deric Craig from NE Ohio
I needed to install a quality PU in a used old Cortez Les Paul copy, I acquired recently. It was a 1976 copy, and had no discernible wear or marks any where - quite nice with a good neck. Must have be... read more [+]en bought and put away...October 20, 2011 Music Background: Professional guitarist, and live sound engineer The original pickups were horrid and cheezy as to be expected and screeched awful on overdrive use. My intended purpose is a 1/2 step down tuned instrument for occasional use in performances. I researched for my selection and since I have other Les Pauls with factory Gibson PAFs - I chose the SH-1. After installing the new SH-1, I am very pleased. Of course no more screech issues and it gives me very comparable performance and sound on both clean and OD sounds like my other (real) Les Pauls. I did not want a super distortion PU and this purchase fully met my needs. If you prefer a PAF pick up - this is a good selection. close [-] Also popular
