Seymour Duncan: '78 Model Pickups - Set

https://www.seymourduncan.com/single-product/78-model

Just imagine being able to bottle the tone and talent of the 23 year old Edward Van Halen. The same man who in 1978 caused one of the largest seismic shifts in guitar-playing history. We can't do that, of course. Well, not the talent part anyway. However Seymour Duncan's '78 pickups let us park a little closer to the tone component. The story is that EVH took a PAF to Seymour back then and requested it be wound just a little hotter and with some extra mojo to facilitate natural and artificial harmonics. Up until now recreations of that pickup have only been available via the Seymour Duncan Custom Shop. Now it's in full production and we can all try it. And I'm impressed. They not only rock the hell out of Marshall-type amps but they lend themselves to some very pretty tones when used with gentler amps like 'blackface' Fenders as well. Which is why, in this video, I've decided to lean on the frighteningly accurate amp models of my Axe-FX III to demonstrate the '78 Models' versatility. Nice one, Seymour!
