Description
Seymour Duncan Humbucker SH-10B Full Shred Bridge Pickup 7 String
The SH-10B Full Shred is a medium-output bridge humbucker engineered for extended-range 7-string guitars, delivering aggressive articulation without sacrificing clarity. This pickup cuts through dense mixes with a tight, controlled low end and scooped midrange character that sits perfectly in heavy music productions, tracking accurately during recording sessions and maintaining definition through compression and saturation in the mix.
Tone & Recording Character
The medium output design produces focused punch with reduced feedback, ideal for capturing tight palm-muted rhythms and sustaining leads on 7-string instruments during overdubs. The scooped midrange pairs with a tight low end to maintain definition in high-gain tracking scenarios, while the Alnico 5 bar magnet delivers responsive dynamics that translate clearly to tape or digital with minimal pickup-induced coloration.
Design & Build
Hand built in Santa Barbara, CA, this pickup features vacuum wax potting for maximum durability and noise elimination—critical for clean recording without unwanted hum in layered sessions. The 4-conductor lead wire enables flexible switching configurations, allowing coil-split and phase-reverse options for expanded sonic palette across different song sections and production needs.
