New Slash Options

4-Conductor, Short-Leg, and Trembucker

 

Original Alnico II Pro Slash  |  Slash 2.0

Slash is known for some of the best riffs, licks and solos in rock n’ roll. To replicate the ferocious tone he achieved on records for Guns N’ Roses, Velvet Revolver, and his solo albums, Slash and Seymour Duncan collaborated to develop his signature pickup sets: the Slash and Slash 2.0 Humbuckers. Historically, these pickups have been available in vintage specs – with long mounting legs, single conductor braided cable, and traditional humbucker spacing. Now, Seymour Duncan is also offering both models with some of our most popular modern options:

  • Short mounting legs to fit in a wider variety of guitars and for direct mounting
  • 4-Conductor cable for coil splitting, series/parallel wiring and phase switching
  • Trembucker-spaced bridge pickup option which will perfectly align strings with pole pieces in guitars with Floyd Rose® style locking tremolo bridges, six-screw vintage Fender® tremolo types or two-point fulcrum tremolo bridges

“I like the additional tonal possibilities of a coil split for a great variety of sounds. I’m most fond of splitting the neck pickup. This is something I mainly use in the studio, but I also love having the option in live scenarios as well.”

– Slash

With your choice of vintage and modern specs, along with a wide variety of color & cover combinations, the sound of Slash’s favorite humbuckers is now available for even more of your favorite guitars!

Evolution of a legend. After a decade of world tours with Guns N’ Roses and Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators, Slash needed a hotter version of his beloved APH-2 pickups for live applications. His directive to Seymour Duncan: “same tonality, same great clarity…but hotter.”

The Slash 2.0 Set delivers exactly that. Based on his signature APH-2 pickups, the hotter wind provides the familiar sound Slash loves while pushing his amps with the perfect balance of volume, drive, and compression. Hand-built in Santa Barbara using the same ’80s methods with nickel silver bottom plates, maple spacers, and wax potting.

Born from real-world touring demands, the Slash 2.0 gives you more firepower without sacrificing clarity. Now available in modern configurations including 4-conductor wiring and trembucker spacing.

Slash Alinco II Pro Short Leg

The Original Alnico II Pro Slash

Now with New Options! – Short mounting legs, 4-Conductor cable and Trembucker spacing.

The legendary tone that powered Appetite for Destruction. When Slash’s decades-old Alnico II Pro humbuckers sounded different in his new Gibson Les Paul Signature models, Seymour Duncan accepted the challenge: craft a pickup that would make every Les Paul sound like his original AFD guitar.

The Slash Signature Model humbucker (APH-2) uses specialized mag wire and winding specs paired with Alnico 2 bar magnets to deliver the sustain, crunch, and aggressive midrange that made Slash’s tone iconic. Hand-built in Santa Barbara using the same ’80s methods, each set features nickel silver bottom plates, maple spacers, and wax potting.

This is the pickup Slash’s tech Ace Bergman installs in his guitars—pulled straight from production stock. Now available in modern configurations including 4-conductor wiring and trembucker spacing.
