Summary
A custom overwound P.A.F.-like humbucker with moderate output, perfectly voiced for supreme blues, rock, and metal.
Description
The Duncan Custom is
a hot humbucker which uses a small ceramic magnet and custom-wound coils
to dish out a ‘P.A.F.-on-steroids’ tone. It has tight lows, a bump in
the upper midrange which gives you more character and crunch, and an
airy high end that cuts through heavy distortion but is also great for
achieving crystal-clear clean tones. It’s especially suited
to warmer-sounding guitars with a prominent midrange, and many players
like to use it in Les Pauls and Paul Reed Smiths. It pairs well with the
Jazz or ’59 neck models, and forms one half of our ’59/Custom Hybrid
humbucker.
Hand
built in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the Duncan Custom uses a small
ceramic bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire
for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free
performance.
