Seymour Duncan SHR-1 Hot Rails Strat Single-Coil-Sized Humbucker Pickup Parchment Bridge

The Seymour Duncan SHR-1 Hot Rails Strat Single-Coil-Sized Humbucker Pickup Black Neck injects high-output humbucker tone into your Stratocaster. Seymour Duncan designed the Hot Rails pickup to give players a powerful, aggressive voice usually reserved for humbucker-equipped guitars. The Hot Rails' blade design and ceramic magnets produce loads of harmonically rich midrange and high end, transforming chords into roaring power chords and single notes into screaming leads. For players craving thicker rock tones from their Strat, the SHR-1 is a revelation.

High-Output Humbucker Sound in a Single-Coil Size

The SHR-1 Hot Rails pickup fits a standard single-coil slot but packs the punch of a full-size humbucker. Seymour Duncan engineered the Hot Rails using a pair of steel blades instead of traditional pole pieces, allowing for more windings and a stronger ceramic magnet. The result is one of Duncan's highest-output pickups with outstanding sustain and aggressive tone that cuts through dense mixes.

Ceramic Magnet and Heavy Windings for Maximum Power

At the heart of the SHR-1's performance is a ceramic magnet and enamel-coated coil windings designed to maximize output. The ceramic magnet enhances highs and upper midrange frequencies, giving chords and single notes a raspy, crunchy quality. The heavy coil windings also significantly boost the SHR-1's output, driving tube amps into a throaty overdrive and giving solid-state amps a push into distortion. For high-gain genres like hard rock, metal, and punk, the SHR-1 delivers a relentless sonic assault.

Simple Installation and Premium Components

The SHR-1 Hot Rails pickup installs easily into any standard single-coil slot using just a screwdriver. Premium components like four-conductor lead wire, fiber bobbins, and Duncan's meticulous hand-building ensure years of great tone and reliability. With alnico and stainless pole pieces also available, the SHR-1 lets you customize your sound.
