Seymour Duncan El Diablo Rail Bridge Humbucker
zZounds Gear Experts Say...
With a scorching-hot wind and twin extra-long Alnico 2 blade magnets, the super-high-output El Diablo has been a thrash/metal artist favorite for decades.
Overview
For decades, El Diablo has been an artist favorite and one of Seymour Duncan's best-selling Custom Shop made-to-order models. It sounds as vicious as it looks. It holds a super-hot wind and the twin Alnico 2 blade magnets deliver the "what you see is what you get" bold aesthetics that separate it from all other high-output humbuckers.
The blade magnets and extra hot DC resistance make the El Diablo one of Seymour Duncan's best pickups for players that want thick and tight saturation for percussive rhythms and warm leads that push through the mix. Slightly longer than a standard humbucker, the El Diablo comes with custom mounting ring. If mounting in a pickguard, slight modification may be required.

"awesome pickup but advertised wrong"

This is a great pickup. there is a mix-up due to 2 Seymour pickups having the El Diablo name. Scott Ian had a custom shop super distortion copy with standard pole screws made that was called the El Diablo, but this isn't that pickup. This is the El Diablo that was made for Tony Iommi for his signature guitar between 95 and 97, before he signed deals with Gibson. This should be known for Iommi, not Ian. that being said, Scott Ian does use this version in some of his guitars, but its not his signature pickup.
