Seymour Duncan Slash 2.0 Neck Humbucker Black Pickup

The Slash 2.0 Neck Humbucker delivers the articulate, responsive character that defined a generation of hard rock and metal tones. This is a medium-output neck pickup engineered for clarity and definition in the neck position, offering smooth sustain without sacrificing note separation—ideal for rhythm work and lead passages that demand presence and character.

Tone & Characteristics

Built on a foundation of Alnico 2 rough cast magnets, this pickup produces a warm, vintage-leaning voice with excellent harmonic complexity. The 8.8 kΩ DC resistance and medium output level ensure balanced response across the frequency spectrum, preventing the neck position from becoming muddy while maintaining the articulation needed for riff definition and sustained bends.

Construction & Materials

Handcrafted in Santa Barbara, California, this pickup employs a nickel silver baseplate and maple spacer for tonal clarity and structural integrity. Wax potting controls microphonic feedback, while the single conductor braided lead wire and long mounting legs ensure secure installation and clean wiring integration into most standard guitar cavities.
