Seymour Duncan SH-12 Screamin' Demon / SH-2N Jazz Neck Black Pickup Set

The idea was to create a pickup that had the articulate airiness of an old-school P.A.F., but with more growl and sizzle. We designed slightly overwound coils paired with an alnico 5 bar magnet and a mix of pole pieces that included one row of standard adjustable screws and one row of shorter Allen head screw. What you get is a big, open tone, with a treble emphasis that keeps your pick attack sounding articulate at any level of distortion.

Originally designed as a bridge pickup, the 10k Screamin’ Demon also works great as a neck pickup when paired with a high output humbucker in the bridge. Pair the Screamin’ Demon bridge with the 59 or Jazz model neck humbuckers for a great 80s setup.

Hand built in Santa Barbara, CA, the Screamin’ Demon medium output humbucker pickups use an alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, are vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance, and are available in standard humbucker or Trembucker spacing.

SH-2n Jazz Neck

The Jazz Model neck is a bright, vintage-output humbucker which stays clear even under extreme distortion.

Description

Originally designed as the matching neck pickup for the JB Model bridge pickup, the Jazz is an incredibly versatile humbucker that will work for almost any style of music. An Alnico 5 bar magnet and a special coil wind give it a glassy treble response and full, tight bass, while scooped mids help each note to sing clearly even under extreme high gain – or even more extreme speed. It pairs especially well with the JB, Distortion, Invader and Perpetual Burn but is a great all-purpose neck pickup for many pickup combinations. It’s a favorite among the likes of legendary players such as Randy Rhoads, Jeff Beck, Dave Mustaine and Alex Skolnick.
