Description
Seymour Duncan Slash 2.0 Bridge Humbucker Raw Nickel 4-Conductor SE Pickup
The Slash 2.0 Bridge Humbucker delivers aggressive, articulate midrange and tight low-end response designed for high-gain applications and hard rock tones. Built by Seymour Duncan in Santa Barbara, this pickup combines classic construction with refined voicing that cuts through dense mixes while maintaining definition at volume. The raw nickel cover gives it a slightly brighter, more open character than covered variants—essential for bridge-position clarity on a loud stage.
Tone & Output
Rated at 9.38 kΩ DC resistance, this bridge humbucker produces hot output suitable for overdrive and distortion without sacrificing note clarity. The Alnico II magnet structure provides responsive dynamics and natural breakup characteristics that respond well to pick attack and playing dynamics, keeping every note defined even in dense mix situations.
Design & Build Quality
Hand-built construction using maple spacers, paper tape, and wax potting ensures reliable operation and consistent tone night after night. The nickel silver bottom plate contributes to the pickup's tonal character, while the single conductor braided shield wiring simplifies installation and reduces noise interference in high-output applications—critical for touring and venue work.
