"Great Lil' Devil!!!"

This is the meanest, harshist pickup you've ever heard or will hear. Playing this thing with some added distortion will make you really love playing metal music that makes your hair stand up on end. I bought this pickup and put it in my Epiphone Custom, and now I am rocking it away thanks to this pickup!

About This Product!
Description
The SH-14 Custom 5 pickup was developed by an eager group of contributors to Seymour Duncan's web user group who replaced the ceramic or Alnico 2 magnet in an SH-5 Custom or SH-11 Custom Custom with an Alnico 5. Tonally, the Custom 5 is a compromise between these 2 pickups. It offers the optimum balance of warmth, punch, power, and clarity.

Compared to the SH-5 and SH-11, the tone is more vintage, with less distortion, but it's still very strong and powerful. It's fuller than an SH-5 with softer highs, more bass, and slightly less output. It's got a great rhythm sound and a beautiful, deep singing lead tone. Clean sounds are rich and full with enhanced presence. Think of the Custom 5 as a higher output SH-1 '59 with a deeper bottom end and expanded output.
