Alnico 2 magnet
It is paired with the pickup’s output to shape the described sound.

Independent shopping perspective
For a white bridge-position humbucker, the Seymour Duncan ’78 Model combines an Alnico 2 magnet with hot winding specifications modeled on the original P.A.F. rewind. It is voiced for warm hard-rock crunch when holding down rhythm parts, then shifts toward biting lead tones. The description also highlights articulated picked harmonics and overtone-laden tapped runs, giving its bridge voice a clear role in those performance techniques.
