Alnico II Pro Slash (Neck)

When Slash was given the honor of having a Gibson Les Paul Signature model built, we sent over the same Alnico 2 Pro humbuckers that he has used for decades. Turns out, the new guitars sounded noticeably different than the original. So, we accepted the challenge to make him a new pickup that would make all of his new signature guitars sound just like the original AFD Les Paul. The result is the Slash Signature Model humbucker.

P.S. In case you were wondering, yes, the set that you buy is exactly the same as what Slash’s mighty tech, Ace Bergman, installs in Slash’s guitars. When the boss needs some new APH-2s, we pull them right out of production stock.

Great Gig in the Sky meets Slash tone.. Love it!

[ROVAKAN]

i forgot about pick ups, performance just took my mind so intence

A Duncan JB in the bridge and an Alnico 2 pro Slash in the neck is BEAUTIFUL

I like all of the pick ups I have installed in my various guitars. However, today I did a side by side and directly compared the drive sound of the SD Slash ....SD Pro 59...Gibson T Top from their custom shop, and a Curtis Novak SD Slash won. It had the best drive sound, best clean up, balance from low end to high end, and no weird off tones or uncomfortable sounding notes. That is one bad ass pick up.

Great Tone, that is one of the best neck tones I've ever heard.

Ive had these pups in my Gibby LP standard for about a year now and there is absolutley no need to ever change them out. Perfect sound for soul filled blues/rock style of playing. My favorite pickups in the past 30 years of playing..

Are you David Gilmour ? Your playing is so much like his but still your own! LOVE IT!

[guitarzilla]

very articulate, clean when you dial back, ballsy all the way up.. the best.

I would have liked to finish watching the video but you scorched my face off with that amazing tone. Cheers!

[drgonzo]

Much respect to the guitar player who ever you are, I have a feeling even if those were a $9.99 set of Chinese humbucker with kitchen magnets wound with pig intestines you would make them sound good

[eze]

Exactly the sound i want to hear when i see a Les Paul 👍

[therealmccoy]

I just installed them in my guitar. They sound amazing!! Important piece of information: they come with just one wire (live), braided with a shield (ground), please look up the schematics for that because they are not included.

I have an epiphone LP std 60s 2020 with those pups, and its sounds amazing

[emmanuel]

Damn! i never get tired of heard this demo, it's sounds very sweet

[Tremonti]

This guy is a fantastic player!  Seriously!

[happytobeproud]

These sounds great man. With a little more gain you get a sweet amount of increased sustain which just holds onto the bends.

[The-Watchtower]

I installed these into my Ibanez AR250 (look it up) recently. To say these pickups kick ass is an understatement - the tone is amazing, and not just at practice volumes. Plugged into a Marshall half-stack at a rehearsal studio - and blew my bassist & drummer out of the water on how good it sounded before and after, they couldn't stop talking about it, which is all I needed to know I made the right choice. Amazing presence, sustain and bite - exactly what I want in a humbucker. No boxy mud here - these babies sing.

Yes is the answer, slash pickups are versatile! Select the neck pick up, set your amp to high mids with a medium crunch on the preamp (not too high as you want to retain some of the dynamics), role back the tone a bit and play at a high enough volume to get a controlled feedback. This is commonly known as the woman tone!

[ajb_music]

Such a clear cutting pickup, sounds amazing!

[happytobeproud]

Definately! Really gives a good example of the range you get with these babies..
