A More Aggressive Iteration of Slash's Signature Tone
From his paradigm-shifting playing on Appetite for Destruction to the present, Slash has trusted Seymour Duncan pickups to deliver his signature tone for decades. The Seymour Duncan Slash 3.0 represents his hottest set of humbuckers yet, delivering a higher-output take on his previous pickup collaborations without giving an inch when it comes to clarity and dynamics. This set was originally commissioned by Slash for the Guns N’ Roses performance at the Back to the Beginning tribute to Ozzy Osbourne, where Slash rocked a pair of his 3.0 ’buckers. In his own words, the Slash 3.0 set “is basically just one more step up. You have more output, but still that same clarity and honesty of the sound of the guitar.” Plus, Sweetwater’s Slash superfans are pleased to report that the Slash 3.0 set sports authentic vintage-inspired construction in line with his previous pickups, including rough-cast Alnico 5 magnets and a wax-potted design to eliminate noise and squeals. Whether you’re supercharging your SG à la Slash at the Back to the Beginning concert or seeking a more cutting sound out of your single-cut, Seymour Duncan’s Slash 3.0 pickups are sure to sate your tonal appetite.
