Description
Seymour Duncan SH-10b Full Shred White Pickup
The SH-10b Full Shred is a medium-output humbucker engineered to capture aggressive, articulate lead tones while maintaining clarity across the frequency spectrum in your recordings. This pickup delivers punchy midrange definition and controlled high-end response, making it particularly effective for modern rock, metal, and high-gain sessions where note separation and definition are critical to your mix.
Tone & Electronics
The 5.5 kHz resonant peak combined with a balanced 4/4/8 EQ signature (Bass/Mid/Treble) produces a focused voice that cuts through dense mixes without muddying adjacent tracks. With 14.1 kOhm DC resistance, this pickup generates medium output suitable for both clean articulation and saturated overdrive tones, giving you versatility across gain staging in the studio.
Construction & Wiring
Hand-built in Santa Barbara using an Alnico 5 bar magnet and nickel-silver bottom plate, the SH-10b employs double rows of Allen screw poles for precise field shaping that translates to consistent, trackable tone. The included 4-conductor lead wire enables multiple wiring configurations for session flexibility, while vacuum wax potting eliminates microphonic feedback for clean, squeal-free recordings.
