The Seymour Duncan SSL-52b Five-Two Custom Bridge is an extremely balanced true single-coil pickup. Recommended for country, pop, blues, classic rock and heavy rock. The SS-52b is overwound and has slightly higher output than the SSL-52n neck pickup.
Alnico 2 magnets provide warmth and softer attack on the three high strings. Alnico 5 magnets provide punch and brightness on the low strings. It's like having two separate presence controls: one optimized for the high strings and one for the low strings. The result is a very balanced pickup with a bright and springy bottom end, and a smooth and rich top end.
For all well-balanced instruments. Works equally well with maple and rosewood fingerboards.
Players include Webb Wilder, John McDuffie / Rita Coolidge, Darryl Preston / Rhett Akins, Michael Fath.
