Description
Seymour Duncan Slash 2.0 Gold 4-Conductor SE Pickup
The Slash 2.0 Gold delivers a hotter, more aggressive voice than the original APH-2 signature model, with increased output and sustain that cuts through dense mixes on stage. Hand-built in Santa Barbara using time-tested 1980s construction methods, this pickup combines vintage sensibilities with modern winding specifications. The 4-conductor wiring unlocks coil splitting, series/parallel, and phase switching capabilities—giving you extensive tonal flexibility without additional hardware modifications.
Tone & Electronics
Powered by Alnico 2 bar magnets, the Slash 2.0 produces warm, articulate highs with substantial low-end presence and natural harmonic bloom. The hotter wind pushes into responsive overdrive territory while maintaining definition across the frequency spectrum. Four-conductor construction enables seamless switching between full-humbucking mode and split-coil configurations, expanding your sonic palette from thick, saturated rhythms to jangly single-coil textures without swapping pickups mid-gig.
Design & Build
Construction begins with wax potting for microphonic feedback elimination and long-term road reliability. The nickel silver bottom plate and maple spacer contribute to resonance and structural integrity, while short or long leg mounting options adapt to virtually any guitar cavity depth. Each unit is hand-assembled in Santa Barbara, ensuring consistent quality and the tonal character associated with vintage Seymour Duncan craftsmanship—built to survive touring and deliver night after night.
