Seymour DuncanSSM 1 N 2 °C CHR Firebird Vintage Humbucker 2 Conductor Hookup Cable Neck Position Cover Chrome

Love this pickup. Classic style, quality construction, great tonality. If you are installing it yourself as I did, please note that the single wound wire is not nearly as easy to just solder in as a dual wire configuration. I had to consult the web and a few YouTube videos to figure it out. The negative wire must be separated from the positive wire and it is a mesh wire wrapped around the positive wire. I had to cut it with very small sharp scissors. After that install was fairly simple. No idea why SD builds it like that, and came across many others commenting with that same question. If you are buying this off of Amazon chances are you will be doing the install yourself. Watch some YouTube videos if your electronics & soldering skills are not great. Dont be scared off from installing it yourself, just cautious.If this review was helpful, please click the button below and let me know.

This SD SM1-N is the perfect humbucker if you a want to upgrade to a noiseless pickup with great sound. I purchased this pickup for my Brent Mason tele guitar build and couldn’t be happier with the results.

This pickup is everything I hoped. It replaces the neck p90 on an Epiphone es339. Installation was a bear. The switch and all four pots needed to be pulled out through the f-hole in order to be soldered safely, and the mount is very much a kludge. A foam bedding supports the pickup at near the coffect height. You'll need to buy a mounting ring if you're putting it in yourself. Springs are a crucial ingredient. They need to be in there, at a low tension. Their microphonic vibration gives that lovely throaty character of Fender single-coil neck pickups.When I got everything put back together, all difficulties were forgiven. What a gorgeous tone! Clarity and glassy highlights forever without forsaking the brittle breakup of the bridge p90. The very best of all worlds!I recommend this upgrade highly.

Very authentic Firebird tone, have used this pickup in a Les Paul replacing a p90 and a Tele as the neck pickup. Big Strat-like neck pickup tones, but as expected, doesn’t pair as nicely with a middle pickup in a “Nashville” type setup.

One of my favorite pickups ever! Sounds great and arrived perfectly!

I was totally floored at the tone from this pickup in the neck of my Tele. It is as beautiful and versatile as you can get. The best of all worlds. Can be dialed to sound like a single with polished glass or a crunchy humbucker with just a roll of the volume knob. Just buy it. It is the one you are looking for.

I put this in the neck position of a Tele, paired w/ Duncan Antiquity 1 in the bridge. Very useable compared to the “clean jazz only” stock Tele pup. Fat and tight instead of muddy and bloompy when pushed. AWESOME for slide.

installed this pick up in the neck position of my Fender american tele, it sounds great. Check the wiring schematic, though.
