Seymour Duncan TB-15 Alternative 8 Trembkr Reverse Zeb Pickup vs Seymour Duncan TB-15 Alternative 8 Trembkr White Pickup
Both are TB-15 Alternative 8 trembuckers with identical 17.10 ohm output and Alnico 8 magnets, but they differ in pole spacing and tonal character: the Reverse Zebra is engineered for Floyd Rose locking bridges with expanded spacing and high-output aggression suited to metal and drop tunings, while the White version uses wide trembucker spacing for traditional tremolo systems and delivers a more moderate, naturally compressed tone better suited to alternative and modern rock.
No sales tax on orders shipped outside California — total cost beats national retailers that charge sales tax in nearly every state.
