Seymour Duncan Humbucker SH-2N 7-String Jazz Model Neck Pickup

Seymour Duncan Humbucker SH-2N 7-String Jazz Model Neck Pickup

The SH-2N is a controlled, articulate neck pickup engineered for 7-string extended-range instruments where clarity and harmonic definition matter. Its warm yet focused character preserves individual note separation even in tight chord voicings, making it an excellent choice for jazz fusion, progressive, and contemporary styles demanding precision and musicality from the neck position.

Tone & Voicing

A 7.72 kΩ DC resistance and Alnico V bar magnet combine to deliver a balanced output with pronounced midrange presence and smooth treble extension. The resonant peak at 8 kHz adds presence and articulation without harshness, while the 5/3/9 bass/mid/treble EQ curve emphasizes upper frequencies to cut through without sacrificing warmth—ideal for supporting complex chord work and melodic runs.

Construction & Specifications

Built with a nickel silver bottom plate and vacuum wax potted for feedback rejection and durability, this pickup is handmade in Santa Barbara, California. The four-conductor cable supports full series/parallel/split wiring flexibility on compatible instruments, giving you tonal sculpting options down the line.
