Custom 5 Trembucker Model -
The Custom 5 pickup was developed by replacing the ceramic
or Alnico II magnet in an SH-5
Custom or SH-11
Custom Custom with an Alnico V magnet. Tonally, the Custom 5 is a
compromise between these two pickups. It offers the optimum balance
of warmth, punch, power and clarity.
Compared to the SH-5 and SH-11, the tone is more vintage, with less
distortion, but it's still very strong and
powerful. It's fuller than an SH-5 with
softer highs, more bass, and slightly less output. It's
got a great rhythm sound and a beautiful, deep singing lead tone.
Clean sounds are rich and full with enhanced presence. Think of the
Custom 5 as a higher output SH-1 '59 Model with a deeper bottom end and expanded output. Same specifications as the Custom 5 bridge
model but with wider pole spacing for Floyd Rose and other
locking tremolos. Wound for the bridge position. |
