SEYMOUR DUNCAN APH-2S SLASH ALNCII PROHB ZEBRA SET

11104-08-ZRZ Humbucker set specifically dubbed by Slash to give all of his Les Pauls that tone of appetite for destruction. When Slash had the honor of having a Gibson Les Paul Signature model built, we used the same Alnico 2 Pro humbuckers he used for decades. It turns out that the new guitars sounded considerably different than the original. So, we accepted the challenge of making him a new pickup that would make all of his new signature guitars sound just like the original AFD Les Paul. The result is the Slash Signature humbucker model. We used a different magnetic wire and wrap specifications that, when combined with the 2-bar alnico magnet, provided exactly what was needed to push a standard Les Paul toward that familiar sustain, crunch, and midrange that were so characteristic of the tone of the original Derrig Les Paul, copied for Slash. Slash humbuckers are hand-built in Santa Barbara the same way we built its originals in the '80s, with a nickel-plated silver bottom plate with long mounting legs, single-conductor woven conductor wire, maple spacer, paper tape, and wax coating. ``Postscript”, in case you were wondering, yes, the set you buy is exactly the same as the one Slash's famous technician, Ace Bergman, installs in Slash's guitars. When the boss needs some new APH-2s, we take them out of production stock.
