Description
Seymour Duncan Slash 2.0 Neck Humbucker Reverse Zebra Pickup
The Slash 2.0 Neck Humbucker delivers articulate, balanced output with excellent clarity and sustain—a refined evolution of the original Slash signature model. The reverse zebra coil configuration offers distinctive aesthetics while maintaining the controlled, musical response that defined the design. This pickup excels in both classic rock and modern applications where definition matters as much as power, sitting in the neck position to provide clarity during lead lines and coherence during rhythm work.
Tone & Output Character
Built with Alnico II magnets, this neck humbucker produces a warm yet focused tone with smooth midrange and natural compression. The 8.8 kΩ DC resistance positioning keeps output moderate enough for crystal-clear articulation without sacrificing body or sustain, making it cut through a mix without muddiness while retaining the thickness needed for layered rhythms and sustained solos.
Design & Build Quality
Hand-built in Santa Barbara using meticulous construction standards, each pickup is individually crafted for consistency and reliability on stage and in the studio. The reverse zebra coil finish combines striking visual appeal with proven performance, while the standard one-conductor braided shield cable ensures clean signal transmission and straightforward installation into most humbucker-routed guitars, getting you playing faster with minimal fuss.
