Description
The Slash 2.0 starts where the original APH-2 left off, then leans into a hotter wind for players who gig hard and want their amp pushed a little further into breakup. Seymour Duncan kept the Alnico II magnet from the original recipe, so you still get that famously soft high-end roll-off and the forgiving, non-flabby pull on the low strings — but with more output on tap for stages and higher-gain rigs.
- Alnico II magnet for smooth, vocal highs and controlled low-end pull
- Hotter wind than the original APH-2 for added drive and sustain
- Warm, thick, extra-sweet voicing built for lead work and sustained notes
- Handbuilt construction with Seymour Duncan’s usual attention to detail
- Nickel cover
What sets this set apart isn’t raw gain — it’s balance. Push your amp and you get compression and drive that stays musical instead of mushy, with sustain that seems to hang on forever rather than fizzling out. It’s the kind of pickup that rewards dynamics: dig in and it snarls a bit harder, back off and it cleans up with warmth intact.
If your current pickups feel thin under gain or your sustain runs out before the note does, the Slash 2.0 set is built to fix exactly that — a well-mannered, hot-rodded humbucker for players who want more push without sacrificing tone.
