Description
Seymour Duncan SH-10b Full Shred White Pickup
The SH-10b Full Shred is a medium-output humbucker engineered for aggressive, articulate lead work without sacrificing clarity across the frequency spectrum. This pickup delivers punchy midrange definition and controlled high-end response, making it particularly effective for modern rock, metal, and high-gain applications where note separation matters on stage.
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 live mixes. With 14.1 kOhm DC resistance, this pickup generates medium output suitable for both clean articulation and saturated overdrive tones, holding together under the demands of touring and nightly gigs.
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. The included 4-conductor lead wire enables multiple wiring configurations, while vacuum wax potting eliminates microphonic feedback for clean, squeal-free operation night after night.
