Product Description
The Seymour Duncan SH-3 Stag Mag Bridge Humbucker - white. FREE shipping anywhere in the USA!Application
Uniquely constructed humbucker uses Alnico 2 rod pole pieces to achieve true single-coil sound when split (tapped). Recommended for classic rock, jazz, blues, funk and country.
Description
The Stag Mag uses the same type of magnets as a vintage singe coil. Each coil is as powerful as a single-coil. When the pickup is split (sometimes called "tapped") such that only one coil is used, the sound is bright and glassy, like a vintage Strat® pickup. In full output, humbucking mode, the tone is rich and full with a bright high-end. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable.
Complete setup
Though often used in the bridge position, the Stag Mag can be used in the neck as well.
Guitars
Use with any guitar with traditional string spacing in the bridge position (1.925" or 48.9mm). Works with rosewood, ebony or maple fingerboards.
Make sure to use the Stag Mag with a switch to maximize the real-deal single-coil tone when split. Also available in black, zebra and reverse zebra.
| About the Guitars: We used a '60's Classic Les Paul with a fresh set of American Flyer 10-46 gauge strings. About the Amps: We employed the "highest common denominator" philosophy in our amp selection. For clean tones, we used a silverface Fender Super Reverb with stock 4x10 "blue frame" speakers. We kept the Bright Switch "On" throughout. For crunch tones, we used a well-worn Marshall JCM 800 50 watt master volume head through a new Marshall 1960A Celestion®-loaded 4x12 cabinet. We plugged into the High output. With both amps we close miked straight-on with SM-57s through a Soundcraft Spirit Folio Mixer. These are the amp settings:
