{"product_id":"seymour-duncan_aph2n-rz","title":"Seymour Duncan - Slash Alnico Pro - Neck in Reverse Zebra","description":"\u003cp\u003eHe is, by many accounts, history's all-time greatest guitar hero. With the ubiquitous top hat and shades, mop of black curls obscuring his face, and a blazing electric guitar tone blasting through a wall of amps, Slash epitomizes the very reasons we first air-strummed a low-slung tennis racquet in the privacy of our bedroom. He is the seminal rock guitar god. And for over three decades he has relied on Seymour Duncan pickups for his guitar tone. Now Seymour Duncan honors their guitar hero with his first signature pickup, the Alnico II Pro Slash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tone of this pickup will be familiar to all who have heard Slash's recorded tone. Though he has dozens of amazing guitars, since 1986 Slash has used pretty much one very special Les Paul for all recording. The Alnico II Pro Slash was designed to give Slash's other Les Paul guitars-what he calls his \"live guitars\"-the exact tone of this legendary instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLike the standard APH-1 Alnico II Pro, which he has used for years, the Slash model uses an Alnico 2 magnet. However, the Alnico II Pro Slash is wound with just enough boosted output to push a stock Les Paul toward the sweet sustain and rude crunch that characterizes Slash's sound as heard on hundreds of recordings. In addition, it comes with some of the same appointments found on the Duncan pickups in Slash's '86 recording axe, including single-conductor cable, long-legged bottom plate, and wooden spacer. For the true fan, or the player who wants to capture Slash's recorded tone, this pickup is a critical part of the tone chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhile designed for use in a Les Paul, this pickup works well in any well-balanced humbucker-equipped guitar including hollow and semi-hollow body guitars. The Slash aficionado will use a pair of these pickups to capture that unmistakable tone. This pickup matches well with Seymour Duncan's SFX-04 Twin Tube Blue all-tube overdrive-distortion pedal for singing leads and authoritative chording.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Alnico II Pro Slash is hand built in Seymour Duncan's Santa Barbara, California workshop and including all mounting hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eApplication\u003cbr\u003e\nWarm, moderate output humbucker. Recommended for jazz, blues, and classic rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDescription\u003cbr\u003e\nLike the standard APH-1 Alnico II Pro, this pickup uses an Alnico 2 magnet.
