Seymour Duncan 78 Model Bridge Humbucker Nickel Cover guitar element

General

This is the Seymour Duncan 78 Model Bridge Humbucker. This is a 9 kOhm alnico 2 double-coil guitar element with extra windings for that 'hotter' PAF-style sound from the late 1970s for your electric guitar. During this time period, Seymour Duncan was already known as the go-to person for guitarists looking for custom guitar elements. Around 1978, a certain legendary guitarist, famous mainly for his fret tapping, brought a PAF pickup to him asking for it to be rewound. The goal? A better reproduction of his harmonics and a guitar sound with just a bit more power.

78 Model Bridge: ideal for iconic licks and riffs from that iconic tonechaser

The result of this collaboration was this 78 Model humbucker. Featuring an Alnico 2 magnet and exactly the same specifications as that original rewind, this guitar element delivers a combination of warmth and crunch with clear overtones. This makes this element ideal for all those iconic licks and solid riffs of this famous tonechaser from those late seventies. The 4-core cable allows other switching options such as single-coil-style coil tapping, among others.
