Product Information


Warm and smooth with great sustain.

The Seymour Duncan SH-1 '59 Model Electric Guitar Pickup is built with the same kind of enameled wire, nickel-plated studs, and balanced coil windings that humbucker inventor Seth Lover used in his first pickups. It's a humbucker that looks and sounds just like a '59 pickup.

Great neck pickup for the money

I just installed this pickup along with the SH-4 JB for the bridge. I'm playing an Epiphone G-400 1966 reissue, and man oh man. The difference is astonishing compared to the factory Alnico II classics that came with the guitar. I was yelling with joy like Dr. Frankenstein--"It's alive!, it's alive!". This pickup is outstanding at the neck position. And for the money, you can't beat the price. I read from other sources that this pickup works especially well with a solid mahogany body and rosewood fretboard. Apparently, these other sources aren't lying. One word of caution: if you're playing through loud amp (around 50 to 100 watts), these pickups are way more responsive. And if you install them yourself like I did, you will have to make small adjustments over a couple of days to set them to your standards. Be prepared to have fun!

Neck Pickup

This thing is the best neck pickup for sweet clean tones and striking bluesy sounds! i played this in a Jackson Rand Rhoads a couple of times, and it rocked out...now put this mean tone machine in a solid mahogany body, and you can rock out 24/7

Classic PAF tone

This pickup is set to give you the classic Patent Applied For tone of the original humbucker. Seymour Duncan pickups are top-notch, and this is no exception. Worth every penny, and their customer support is also to of the line.

This thing ROCKS!!!

I just installed this pickup on my Epiphone Les Paul, and I am utterly speechless on the improvement it has made. I play with a Fender Blues Jr. and i have never heard it so crunchy just with the natural tube overdrive than I have heard it with this pickup!!! From screaming highs, so bluesy lows, this thing can do it all!!! You will not be disappointed with this pickup!!! Mad props to Seymour Duncan!!!

Interesting

I have done a lot of researching lately on upgrading my IBanez RG321MHWK. The basic DiMarzio-made pickups are okay but I desire something more from my guitar. It's an RG!!! It should sound good! So, I have done lots and lots of research, mainly into seymour duncan pickups, and have decided that a '59 pickup is probably the wisest choice for and even sound. I plan on using a Michael Amott configuration ('59 neck, JB-4 bridge) or a Dimebag Darrell configuration ('59 neck, Dimebucker bridge). The '59 just seems to have a great sound quality.
