THIS SG STANDARD IS LOADED WITH A SEYMOUR DUNCAN 59B IN THE LEAD/BRIDGE POSITION AND A SH-PG1B PEARLY GATES BRIDGE PICKUP IN THE NECK POSITION!! THIS GUITAR SOUNDS AND PLAYS LIKE A DREAM, AND WEIGHS IN AT UNDER 7 LB. ALSO HAS BEEN MODIFIED WITH DUNCAN STRAP LOCKS RECESSED INTO THE BODY FOR ADDITIONAL STRENGTH WHILE PLAYING OR SPINNING THE GUITAR. STRAP BUTTONS / LOCKS ARE INCLUDED. GUITAR HAS MINIMAL/EXPECTED WEAR FOR THE AGE (BUILT IN 1999, BOUGHT IN 2000) AS IT IS 1 OF 3 THAT I USED PLAYING OUT. THE UPGRADED MODS ARE MORE THAN ENOUGH TO MAKE UP FOR ANY SMALL BLEMISHES.
IN THE BRIDGE POSITION-The '59 bridge model (SH-1b) is a vintage output humbucker that's great for rock, blues, and more. Its vintage-inspired coils give it an airy quality that is firmly in the P.A.F. family, and the alnico 5 bar magnet and vacuum wax potting make it compatible with lighter guitar strings and louder amplifiers than were ever used in the 1950s. The result is a pickup with tons of old-school tonal character, but with a brighter top end, and a slightly more compressed sound.
IN THE NECK POSITION-Seymour Duncan SH-PG1b Pearly Gates Bridge Humbucker Pickup DESCRIPTION ...
The Seymour Duncan SH-PG1b Pearly Gates is a bridge position, passive humbucker with Alnico II magnets designed for high-output, warm, Texas-blues rock tones. It mimics a 1959 Les Paul PAF, featuring 4-conductor wiring for versatility and wax-potted, 8.2k DC resistance, making it ideal for classic/southern rock.
