Seymour Duncan SH-4 SH-2n Hot Rodded Humbucker Black Set of 2

The SH-4 JB bridge and SH-2N Jazz neck combination delivers the aggressive, cutting bridge tone and articulate neck response that define the modern hard rock and metal stage sound. This pairing gives you tonal authority and high-output character across lead work, rhythm passages, and everything in between—hand-built in Santa Barbara with premium materials that hold up to rigorous gigging and touring schedules.

Tone & Output Characteristics

The SH-4 bridge delivers 16.4 kΩ DC resistance with a 5.5 kHz resonant peak and EQ voicing of 5/6/8 (Bass/Mid/Treble), producing thick, aggressive lead tones with controlled feedback that cuts through a full band mix. The SH-2n neck sits at 7.72 kΩ with an 8 kHz resonant peak and 5/3/9 EQ character, offering warm, articulate tones ideal for rhythm work and clean passages that stay defined without muddying the mix.

Construction & Wiring

Alnico 5 bar magnets and nickel silver bottom plates ensure extended frequency response and long-term stability under stage conditions. Vacuum wax potting eliminates microphonic squeal and noise—critical for live performance—while the 4-conductor lead wire configuration supports multiple wiring options for custom setups and future modifications.
