Seymour Duncan TB-APH1B Alnico II Trembucker Zeb Pickup

Seymour Duncan TB-APH1B Alnico II Trembucker Zeb Pickup

The TB-APH1B is a bridge-position trembucker engineered for players who need articulate, focused output without sacrificing clarity in high-gain settings. Wax-potted construction eliminates microphonic squeal, delivering stable, noise-free performance under heavy distortion. This is a workhorse pickup built for precision and reliability on stage and in the studio.

Tone & Response

The Alnico II bar magnet and 7.85 kOhm DC resistance produce moderate output with a defined midrange character and smooth treble roll-off. A resonant frequency of 6.7 kHz keeps the high end articulate without brittleness, making this pickup equally comfortable with tight metal tones and classic rock textures—cutting through a live mix without muddiness or feedback issues.

Design & Build

Hand-built in Santa Barbara, CA, this pickup features an F-spaced design (2 1/16" E to E) optimized for modern wide-string-spacing bridges. The nickel silver bottom plate and four-conductor cable provide tonal flexibility and wiring options for coil-splitting or series/parallel switching if your guitar's electronics support it, giving you sonic options without additional hardware swaps.
