Gearank High Notes
- 2021.11: Equal Highest Rated Humbucker Size Bridge Pickup Under $100
Tied With:- Seymour Duncan SH-8b
- Seymour Duncan SH-8b
Gearank Recommendation
The Seymour Duncan SH-5 appeared on our recommended list for Budget Guitar Pickups in 1 edition from November 2021 until October 2022 when it was removed due to being out-ranked by the DiMarzio DP100 (Standard Spaced).
Overview
The Seymour Duncan SH-5 or "Duncan Custom" as it's called is a medium-high output overwound humbucker pickup.
It produces a well defined and tight sound, akin to a PAF pickup with a little more beef and aggression.
Its main use-cases are hard rock and metal but is versatile enough to handle other genres.
