Seymour Duncan | SH-15 Alternative 8 Humbucker *B-Stock*

The Seymour Duncan SH-15 Alternative 8 is a truly distinctive high-output bridge humbucker, meticulously designed for exceptional sonic performance. What sets it apart is its custom wind and the incorporation of a high-powered Alnico 8 magnet, which combines the clarity often associated with ceramic pickups with the warmth inherent to Alnico magnets.

Crafted with precision, the Alternative 8 employs high-output coils in tandem with the potent Alnico 8 magnet. This unique combination delivers the sweet treble response reminiscent of Alnico 2 magnets, complements it with the midrange richness of Alnico 5, and fortifies it with the raw power usually associated with ceramic pickups. The result? A massive, punchy, and high-output sound that remains clear and articulate, avoiding any unwanted fizziness or harshness. It excels at cutting through the mix, ensuring your guitar work is heard with distinction. For those seeking a well-rounded setup, consider pairing it with the ’59 neck or Jazz neck model for perfect tonal balance.

Handcrafted in Santa Barbara, California, the Alternative 8 features an Alnico 8 bar magnet, a nickel silver bottom plate, a 4-conductor lead wire that opens up multiple wiring possibilities, and meticulous vacuum wax potting for squeal-free, reliable performance. This pickup isn’t just another option; it’s a testament to Seymour Duncan’s commitment to delivering exceptional tone.
