The Seymour Duncan SH-55 Seth Lover Pickup Set includes both the SH-55b Bridge pickup and the SH-55n Neck pickup The Seymour Duncan SH-55 Seth Lover Model is an ultra-authentic, Alnico 2, P.A.F.-type humbucker. Great for country, jazz, blues and classic rock, this pickup was designed jointly by Seymour and humbucker inventor, the late Seth Lover. Just like the original 1955 P.A.F.s, the SH-55 utilizes a nickel silver cover and long-legged nickel silver bottom plate, butyrate plastic bobbins, plain enamel wire, Alnico 2 bar, wooden spacer, and black paper tape. To be completely true to the original design and tone, the pickup is not wax potted. The tone is vintage P.A.F. The unpotted cover gives a slightly "honky" microphonic quality. Vintage style single conductor cable standard. The SH-55 is mostly commonly used in a neck and bridge set. Designed for brighter toned instruments. Works especially well with maple and ebony fingerboards. Not recommended for use with ultra high gain tube amplifiers over 50 watts.
