Fender Shawbucker 1 Humbucking Electric Guitar Pickup, Zebra

Renowned pickup expert Tim Shaw developed these pickups, building on the work of humbucking pickup creators. After decades of R&D, ShawBucker pickups offer a full, powerful tone while staying true to the original humbucking character. They resist feedback, are highly dynamic, and non - microphonic. These pickups enhance a guitar's fundamental tone without overpowering it. The Shawbucker 1 is great for either position in an HH setup or as the bridge pickup in an HSS setup as it blends well with single - coil pickups. The Shawbucker 2 has a bit more output and is ideal for the bridge position in HH or HSS setups.

Using the Shawbucker 1 pickup is easy. First, decide on the right position for it in your guitar. For a more balanced sound, you can place it in either position in an HH configuration. If you have an HSS setup, it works well as the bridge pickup. When installing, make sure to follow the standard pickup installation steps. As for maintenance, keep your guitar and the pickup clean. Wipe it gently with a soft cloth after each use to remove dust and sweat. Avoid exposing the pickup to extreme temperatures or moisture as this can damage its performance. If you notice any issues with the sound, check the connections first before seeking further professional help.
