An Original Design from the Godfather of Humbuckers!
Seymour Duncan developed its amazing SH-55 humbucking pickup with the help of the inventor of the humbucker: Seth Lover. Thanks to Lover's input, the result was nothing short of pure, iconic, instantly recognizable humbucker tone. True to vintage designs, the SH-55 is not wax potted, and its tone sounds as close to a period-correct PAF humbucker as any attempt to date. There are models available for both the neck and bridge positions. As a matched set, SH-55 pickups make your axe sound as if it were transported in time from the late '50s. Matched with any number of other excellent pickups, your Seymour Duncan SH-55 humbucker will open up whole new worlds of tone.
