Details
Neck: The Alnico 2 Pro Humbucker uses the soft treble attack and low string pull of an alnico 2 bar magnet, combined with a special vintage output coil wind to create a warm, sweet tone that is smooth and full, with tons of natural sustain. The highs will really sing and sound thick, while the lows will be warm and buttery, giving you a pickup that is very sensitive to pick attack. For over 25 years Slash has been the champion of this pickup and used them exclusively on Appetite for Destruction, which has gone on to become the biggest selling debut album of all time. Pair with the Alnico 2 Pro bridge model for a perfectly matched set. Hand built in Santa Barbara, CA, the Alnico 2 Pro humbucker uses an alnico 2 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is wax potted for squeal free operation.

Though he has dozens of amazing guitars since 1986, Slash has used pretty much one very special Les Paul for all recording. With the release of his new signature Les Paul, however, the Alnico II Pro Slash pickup was necessary to give Slash’s new Les Paul guitars (what he calls his “live guitars”) the same classic tone as this legendary instrument.
