Seymour Duncan SH-PG1b Pearly Gates Bridge Pickup, Gold Cover

The Seymour Duncan SH-PG1b Pearly Gates pickup is a warm, slightly-hotter-than-vintage humbucker. Great for blues, classic rock, southern rock, jam, and hard rock. Originally designed as a recreation of the pickups in the '59 Les Paul Standard that defined the raw, rebellious sound of Texas blues-rock. The Pearly Gates is sweet, but slightly rude, with great sustain and a bright top end that makes harmonics jump out of the guitar. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable. Often used in both neck (SH-PG1n) and bridge (SH-PG1b) positions. Can be used in the bridge with an APH-1n Alnico II Pro in the neck for smoother tones; or, a Pearly Gates in the neck with an SH-11 Custom Custom for heavier rock sounds from the bridge position. For brighter toned instruments. Works especially well with maple and ebony fingerboards. Also works great with hollow and semi-hollow body guitars. Used by Dickey Betts (neck & bridge), Warren Haynes / Gov't Mule (neck & bridge), Howard Leese / Heart (neck & bridge), Greg Martin / Kentucky Headhunters (neck & bridge).
