Seymour Duncan78' Model Humbucker Pickup Gold Cover Bridge
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for the bridge position, Seymour Duncan’s ’78 Model pairs an Alnico 2 magnet with a hot wind derived from the original P.A.F. rewind specifications. Its voice is described as warm and crunchy for hard-rock rhythm work, while retaining bite for lead lines. Players working tapped passages can expect overtone-rich response, and the gold cover gives this version its distinct appearance.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Hard-rock rhythm parts that call for warm crunch from the bridge position.
