Seymour Duncan SH-15 BK Alternative 8

I bought this Humbucker for my Ibanez GIO 60. After checking several humbuckers from Seymor Duncan, I decided to try this one. The sound of the original Humbucker fitted in my guitar is really disappointing. It sounds like a bass which is trying to be a guitar. So I wanted more highs (my preferential sound is Alternative/Punk-Rock). After receiving it (after 2 days, which is the standard-Thomann-perfectness) I went to my preferred guitar-store to change it on my guitar.

After playing the first chord I knew: This is it! I must admit I'm a layman concerning things like sound-improvement etc. But this new sound is no comparison to the old.

It sounds full, and also the notes while playing solos sound more clear, present and sustained.

For those who are interested in: I play a Line 6-Spider Valve guitar-tubeamp. I know that the sound changes, dependent which amp is used. But it sounds also great on my Marshall M15 (15 watt) practise-amp.

The quality is as good as always.

I recommend this hubucker to those, who want to have a present sound with more highs and don't want to spend much money.
