Seymour Duncan SH-13 Dimebucker, Bridge Pickup

Seymour Duncan SH-13 Dimebucker Bridge Pickup

The SH-13 Dimebucker delivers aggressive, articulate high-output tone with exceptional clarity in the bridge position. Built with dual stainless steel blades for precise string articulation, this pickup generates the tight attack and defined sustain that cuts through a live mix in contemporary metal and hard rock settings.

Tone & Output Characteristics

A 16.25k ohm DC resistance and ceramic bar magnet provide substantial output with controlled compression and punch. The 5.1 kHz resonant peak emphasizes upper midrange definition, while the EQ curve of 6/5/8 (Bass/Mid/Treble) favors treble clarity without sacrificing low-end weight—ideal for lead work that sits above the band and rhythm tones with aggressive definition.

Design & Construction

Hand-assembled in Santa Barbara, California, this pickup features vacuum wax potting for complete noise elimination and feedback suppression—critical for reliable stage performance. The included four-conductor cable and form-fitting mounting ring accommodate both standard humbucker and Trembucker string spacings, ensuring hassle-free installation in virtually any bridge cavity.
