Seymour Duncan Slash 2.0 Neck Humbucker – Reverse Zebra, 4-Conductor

Slash 2.0 Neck Humbucker Overview

Slash is known for delivering some of the most iconic riffs, licks, and solos in rock ’n’ roll. To capture the ferocious tone heard on his work with Guns N’ Roses, Velvet Revolver, and his solo projects, Slash teamed up with Seymour Duncan to create his signature humbucker sets, including the Slash 2.0. Originally offered with vintage-style specifications like long mounting legs, single-conductor braided cable, and traditional humbucker spacing, this updated version adds modern installation and wiring options while preserving the tonal character Slash depends on.

The Slash 2.0 Neck humbucker is based on his beloved APH-2 pickups but wound hotter for live applications. Over multiple world tours with Guns N’ Roses and Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators, Slash needed the same tonality and clarity as his original set—just “hotter.” This pickup delivers that familiar voice while pushing your amp with the ideal blend of volume, drive, and compression, making it a powerful yet musical choice for rock-focused rigs.

Key Features

• Hotter Slash 2.0 voicing – Based on Slash’s APH-2 signature pickups with a hotter wind for increased volume, drive, and compression while retaining clarity.
• Signature rock ’n’ roll tone – Designed in collaboration with Slash to replicate the aggressive yet articulate sounds heard on his classic and modern records.
• Hand-built craftsmanship – Constructed in Santa Barbara the same way Seymour Duncan built Slash’s original pickups in the 1980s.
• Modern installation options – Short Ear (SE) mounting legs fit a wider variety of guitars and make direct mounting easier.
• Versatile wiring – 4-conductor cable supports coil splitting, series/parallel wiring, and phase switching for expanded tonal options.
