Seymour Duncan SH1N BLK

Used this pickup to replace the original EMG HZ on my LTD Viper 301 and it was an incredible transformation in sound. The sound is clear and articulated and fits my taste exactly. Installation was quick and painless thanks to clear instructions and schematics. Paired up with the SD Invader in the bridge position it has given a lot of versatility to the guitar, which can now be used to play a different variety of styles.

improved my sound a lot. great pickups. they have quite a lot of power in the lows. maybe too much for some, but I like a warm guitar sound instead. matter of taste. but the quality is great

If I need to replace a neck pickup, then it's either this or a Jazz. I bought this to replace the active one on an LTD EC-1000T. Nice, crisp tone with a balanced output. It can do cleans, it can do overdriven tones, you name it. Great middle ground pickup that can do everything unless you need a very specific tone.

I've installed this in an old Epiphone Les Paul and it conjured up Page and Slash pretty much instantly. It has a vintagey, woody sound, and sounds best (in my humble opinon) sunk into the body, almost under the pickup mounting ring (basically away from the strings).

Can't recommend this enough!

Got two Washburn mg-104 and the mg-94 models for a long time (USA Handmade guitars from Grover Jackson era), were thomann released in the beginning of ninenty's. Both models came with seymour duncan pickups, loaded with this one on the neck. Since i've been playing a lot with the MG-104, too many live concerts, for two decades or so, they become very rusty. I bought is this one and thomann the Seymour Duncan TB-11 from Thomann, the best price on the market.
