Seymour Duncan Pickups - It's all about tone!

Seymour Duncan's SH-11 Custom Custom humbucking pickup really shines when used in brighter-sounding guitars in need of an output boost. Perfect for practically any genre, the SH-11 Custom Custom responds extremely well to maple and ebony fingerboards, bringing vintage tone with plenty of attack to the table. The SH-11 Custom Custom's Alnico II magnet provides smooth highs, more midrange, and a spongy bottom end. Performs best in the bridge position, the SH-11 Custom Custom is often paired with a Pearly Gates in the neck.

Seymour Duncan SH-11 Custom Custom at a Glance:
  • Sound
  • Complete Setup

Sound
The SH-11 Custom Custom high-output humbucker is perfect for use in bright guitars. Great for pop, country, blues, classic rock and heavy rock, this pickup can do it all. The Custom Custom is essentially the SH-5 Duncan Custom humbucker equipped with an Alnico II magnet for warm, smooth highs, more midrange, and a spongier bottom end than the SH-5. It's a good choice for players who need a traditional vintage tone with increased output, and comes with four-conductor hookup cable.

Complete Setup
The SH-11 Custom Custom is recommended for bridge position, and is often paired with a Pearly Gates for bluesy P.A.F. tones in the neck. For brighter toned instruments, the SH-11 works well with maple and ebony fingerboards.

Reviews

Player Strat is now Proper
I Just couldn't get along along with the SSS player pickups. I'm sure they have their place, just not my cup of tea.
New HSS pickguard, SH-11 Humbucker coil-split, and SSL-5 in the neck position.
Loved how this guitar feels, now I like it plugged in too!
Perfect for strats
I did a HSS partcaster with an ash body, maple neck and an ebony fretboard. My neck pickup is little '59, middle is duckbucker, and I elected for a custom custom bridge.
My setup allows the bridge to see 500k and the others to see 250k
It really is perfect. I'm very pleased with the outcome.
A very versatile treble pickup that's never harsh. It also does not overpower the other pickups, as I can add the neck humbucker to any position in my set up.
I'm glad I went custom custom over the regular custom as that would been too bright in comparison to the other pickups I have.
LOADS better than the JB JR that comes with the everything axe set.
I'm in love
Upgraded my strat and it's the world of difference. If your looking for smooth sound look no farther.
Custom custom
I recently installed this in a BC Rich Gunslinger to get the Poison band tone and it really sounds freakin awesome!! 100x better than a boring Seymour Duncan JB for better tone!! What a great pickup!!

My Favorite Pickup
I absolutely love this pickup. Installed one in a Kramer Pacer Deluxe and another in a Lasido American Classic Strat. Classic PAF vibe with tighter lows, rich mids, and smooth highs. A little hotter than vintage spec, but perfect for pushing a tube amp into full, articulate saturation—no mud or fizz, and it stays dynamic across the volume knob.
