Seymour Duncan SH-5 Duncan Custom (Black)

I installed this pickup in the bridge position in my 1988 Charvel Model 4 with a Jackson / Floyd Rose licensed Tremolo Bridge. String alignment over the pole-peices is excellent. The guitar has a basswood body and a mid-boost circuit. The guitar always sounded midrange heavy with the stock Jackson bridge pickup even with the mid boost turned all the way down. Other model 4s that I have heard did not have this issue. The SH-5 pickup sounds awesome. The mid boost circuit is useful now! The guitar has just a little grit on clean settings (not that I mind) but that can be remedied by rolling the volume down a tiny bit. I run this guitar through a BOSS GT-8 straight into the sound board at my church and can replicate just about any tone from Chris Tomlin to Lincoln Brewster and Third Day. On my off time I can get that "Brown Sound" with this guitar and my MXR Phasor and MXR Flanger as well as AC/DC and Metallica tones. Overall, this is a very versatile pickup. I have had to improve my technique using higher levels of gain since the pickup is very responsive. Pinch harmonics are easy to achieve. I would recommend this pickup to anyone who plays classic rock, alternative or contemporary praise and worship music.

Super Hot Pickup

This is a 'hot' pickup that loves hard rock and metal. You can get Zakk Wylde harmonics leaping out of the guitar with this. It's a great alternative if you don't want to mess with active pickups and batteries in your guitar.
It has great sustain that seems to go forever! It won't get muddy with a lot of gain. I paired it with a Seymour Duncan Jazz in the neck position in my epiphone explorer. This combination gives you good versitility. You can go from mellow to face-melting riffs.
They make my Epiphone sound like a guitar worth twice the price. It'd easily rival a Gibson on tone now. Great pickup.
