Seymour Duncan Humbucker SH-2n Jazz Model Neck Pickup

The SH-2n Jazz Model delivers a smooth, articulate response that rewards both aggressive rhythm work and delicate, expressive playing with remarkable sensitivity to pick attack and finger dynamics. This neck pickup combines buttery, vintage-voiced warmth with enough definition to maintain clarity in a mix, making it a natural choice for jazz, blues, funk, and classic rock contexts where nuance and sustain drive the tone. The balanced output and responsive character make extended playing sessions genuinely rewarding, practically inviting exploration of your instrument's full textural range.

Tone & Electronics

Built on an Alnico 5 magnet and nickel silver bottom plate, this pickup produces moderate output with articulate midrange clarity. Vacuum wax potting eliminates microphonic feedback, ensuring squeal-free performance across all playing dynamics and volumes.

Design & Construction

Hand-built in Santa Barbara, California, the SH-2n features versatile 4-conductor wiring that accommodates standard humbucker wiring, coil-splitting, and series/parallel configurations. A 7.24k Ohm DC resistance positions this as a moderate-output design, balancing responsiveness with the headroom needed for clean and driven tones alike.
