The highs sound thick and really sing, while the lows are warm and buttery, giving you a pickup that is very sensitive to pick attack. The bridge humbucker is available in standard humbucker or Trembucker spacing.
Just installed these in my 2015 Gibson SG Special and I am very impressed. The guitar came with Gibson 61 Zebra hum buckers and sounded a bit harsh and thin. Then the PCB wiring went bad on one volume pot so I pulled the whole board out and rewired without it. All new pots and 50s wiring so why not some new pups too? I chose the Duncan Phat Cats but was unhappy with the exaggerated upper midrange that P90s exhibit. Really nice pups but not for me. Put the Gibson 61s back in but still the thin and unpleasant sound. So the next move was these Duncan APH-1 alnico II pros and they are delightful. Very alnico II sound and I like it but they do have some body that Seth Lovers and Antiquities do not have. Perfect for an SG, which does not have the inherent "body" of a true Les Paul. Really quite pleased with these pups!! Been playing since 1969 so lots of guitars and pups have passed thru these hands and ears.
If Tarzan played guitar he would use Aph-1 seymour duncans.
More clarity than I thought. A very muscular sound even though it's slightly spongey. Good for rock and hard rock. Needs a little firmer bass and a little more treble cut so it goes best in guitars with thick necks and or ebony ,maple fretboards
I'm still getting used to them, but so far they are clearer/cleaner sounding than the stock pickups, I also swapped out the pots and caps, with the Emerson pre-wired kit, (LP-BB) so it could be a combination of both.
I am pleased with the rest 👍
