Developed by contributors to our web user group who replaced the ceramic or Alnico2 magnet in an SH-5 Custom or SH-11 Custom Custom with an Alnico 5. Compared to the SH-5 and SH-11, the Custom 5's tone is more vintage, with less distortion, but it's still very strong and powerful. Clean sounds are rich and full with enhanced presence. Comes with four-conductor hookup cable.
Recommended for bridge position. Often a Custom 5 is paired with a '59 model for real-deal P.A.F. tones in the neck.
The SH-14 humbucker is available only for bridge position, in black, white, zebra (cream/black), or with nickel and gold cover.
