What players and reviewers say
On the Seymour Duncan 59 Model (SH-1)
“The 490r/490t set is closest to the A2P.”
Comparing with Gibson 490R "Modern Classic", Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro (APH-1), Gibson 490T "Modern Classic", Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro (APH-1)
“I'm really sold on the SD 59 OR lil' 59. As said above, they just have great clarity and definition.”
On the Seymour Duncan Full Shred (SH-10)
“The Full Shred is a tad lower in output and gets close to the lead sound of a JB.”
Comparing with Seymour Duncan JB Model (SH-4)
“A Full Shred sounds very nice in that guitar, similar to a Strat lead pickup but much hotter and more full sounding on the low end.”
