Description
Seymour Duncan SH-10n Full Shred Zebra Pickup
The SH-10n Full Shred neck pickup captures articulate, high-output aggression with controlled lows and searing treble definition. Built for recording sessions and mixing chains that demand precision clarity in lead work without sacrificing neck-position warmth, this Alnico V voiced humbucker sits through dense mixes with surgical precision—ideal for both modern rock and metal production tracking.
Tone & Output Character
A 7.4 kΩ DC resistance and 8 kHz resonant peak create a presence boost that emphasizes articulation and snap in single-note passages, translating to responsive tracking and defined guitar tones in the mix. The EQ curve of 4/4/8 (Bass/Mid/Treble) balances aggressive highs with retained low-end definition, making this pickup equally effective for chunky rhythm support and crystalline lead tones without the mud that can plague traditional neck pickups during overdubs and punch-ins.
Construction & Specifications
Hand-built in Santa Barbara using a nickel-silver bottom plate and vacuum wax potting for noise elimination and durability, the SH-10n features Alnico V bar magnet materials and short Allen screw poles for precise voicing control. The four-conductor cable enables series, parallel, or split-coil wiring options, and the pickup ships with selectable gold or nickel cover finishes.
