General
This humbucker is the pumped up edition of a classic. Taking its cues from the renowned '59, the Seymour Duncan SH-5 7-String Custom humbucker upgrades your tone with the hefty output of a ceramic magnet and a custom coil. The trebles drip with character; the mids pack a punching, vocal presence; and the lows bear tight definition. Add it all up and you have a stomping high-gain humbucker that comes fully prepped to support drop-tunings. Couple it with a vintage-vibed '59 at the neck and complete a solid combo.
The SH-5 Custom 7-String: Souped-Up Sonic Versatility
The SH-5 Custom 7-String also comes pre-fitted with four-conductor wiring that supports a full array of different switching options so that, when soldered to the right switch, you can split the coils down the middle for a more single-coil-vibed sound, or flip the coils out of phase. In fact, with just one pickup, you have the potential to shape a wide spectrum of tonal profiles - all courtesy of just one, high-output wonder of a ceramic humbucker.
