- High-Output Humbucker - The Duncan Distortion bridge is a high-output humbucker, incorporating a massive ceramic magnet and hot coil windings for well-balanced rock and metal tones with rich upper midrange harmonic content.

- Squeal-Free Performance - The Duncan Distortion is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance, ensuring your guitar playing is always clear and uninterrupted.

Product Description
The Duncan Distortion bridge is our original high-output humbucker. It incorporates a massive ceramic magnet and hot coil windings to deliver well-balanced rock and metal tones that have rich upper midrange harmonic content. Great for hard-hitting, crunchy rhythms, and searing lead tone. Riffs are tight and percussive and lead work is fast and immediate with ultra-clear pick dynamics. Originally known as the SH-7 Seymourizer, the Duncan Distortion neck pickup is specifically designed for use with the matching high-output bridge version. It is hot enough to deliver smooth, fluid solo tones under high gain, while still producing bell-like clean tones. Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA, factory, the Duncan Distortion uses a large ceramic bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.

They are definitely a little more scooped than the originals, but have more attack and clarity too. Probably wouldn't want to play jazz or blues with these, but for rock and metal, they are plenty aggressive.
The instructions that came were very clear and it didn't take long to wire them in, maybe half-an-hour per pickup. It definitely helps to have some patience and to know how to solder as you'll need to tin and solder 10 leads in all. Watch some YouTube videos on soldering first!
amerete la vostra chitarra ....suono rock metal tagliente....metallica per intenderci ...ma molto rock slash..potete suonare di tutto.
spero di essere stato utile.
