Product description:The Seymour Duncan SH-55 Seth Lover Model is an ultra-authentic,
Alnico 2, P.A.F.-type humbucker. Great for country, jazz, blues and
classic rock, this pickup was designed jointly by Seymour and humbucker
inventor, the late Seth Lover. Just like the original 1955 P.A.F.s, the
SH-55 utilizes a nickel silver cover and long-legged nickel silver
bottom plate, butyrate plastic bobbins, plain enamel wire, Alnico 2 bar,
wooden spacer, and black paper tape. To be completely true to the
original design and tone, the pickup is not wax potted. The tone is
vintage P.A.F. The unpotted cover gives a slightly "honky" microphonic
quality. Vintage style single conductor cable standard.
The SH-55 is mostly commonly used in a neck and bridge set. Can be used
in the neck with an SH-11 Custom Custom for heavier rock sounds from the
bridge position. Designed for brighter toned instruments. Works
especially well with maple and ebony fingerboards. Not recommended for
use with ultra high gain tube amplifiers over 50 watts.
Players include Joe Perry / Aerosmith (neck & bridge), Gary
Rossington & Rickey Medlocke / Lynyrd Skynyrd (neck & bridge),
Blues Saraceno, Dweezil Zappa, Sheryl Crow (neck & bridge), George
Pajon Jr. / Black-Eyed Peas (neck & bridge), Steve Stevens (neck
& bridge).
