Seymour Duncan Slash 3.0 Black Nickel Pickup Set

The Slash 3.0 pickups deliver the classic rock tone and responsive dynamics that defined a generation of lead playing. Hand-built in Santa Barbara with vintage-inspired construction, this black nickel humbucker set combines traditional appointments with modern potting techniques for consistency and sustain. These pickups excel in players who demand articulate highs, thick mids, and controlled output without sacrificing the organic feel of classic designs.

Tone & Construction

Rough cast Alnico 5 magnets provide the harmonic complexity and breakup character essential to rock and blues playing. Vacuum wax-potting eliminates microphonics while preserving the natural resonance of the magnet and coil interaction, resulting in pickups that respond dynamically to pick attack and finger pressure.

Specifications & Compatibility

This two-pickup set ships with wood spacers and traditional hardware appointments, staying true to vintage construction methods. Multiple wiring and spacing options ensure compatibility: choose between single or four-conductor wiring, standard or Trembucker spacing, and long or short-leg options to match your guitar's existing hardware and control scheme.
