duncan custom custom (SH-11) it's a hotter alnico 2 pickup. i put one in my strat yesterday and absolutely love the tone for low to moderate gain applications. it's even decent with loads of gain. i bought it, because i love the tone myles kennedy gets with it.

I've heard good things about these. I thought they were supposed to be good for single pickup use I think charvel puts them in some of their higher end customs. I've seen the duncan custom and jb. I'd like to try this would you say its hotter than a jb?

the sh-5 custom is hotter than a JB. the sh-11 customcustom is still pretty hot but has more of a round warm tone. its great for hard bodied strats.

Thanks for the info I've been wanting to switch the jb in my wilton sig. I was thinking full shred or custom, the sh5 seemed right but was curious about the one you got. Its probably to paf type and I'm looking for more punch and cut for lead work

i forgot to mention it splits very very well too.

cool, thanks for the heads up
