Seymour Duncan SHPR-1 P-Rails (Bridge/Neck)

Seymour Duncan SHPR-1 P-Rails (Bridge/Neck)

application
Ground breaking, patent pending design allows a
full-size humbucker to split to either a “real deal” P-90 or a traditional
single coil. Perfect for a wide variety of styles including country, pop, surf,
jazz, blues, classic rock, and heavy rock.


description
Until now, if you wanted humbucker, P-90, and vintage
Strat® tones, you’d have to haul three guitars to the gig. Enter P-Rails™. It’s
a full-size humbucker that splits to either a full-size P-90 or a special
Alnico-powered single-coil Rail pickup. The humbucker sound is full and
expansive, owing to the mis-matched coil configuration. The P-90 is a super fat.
And the Rail coils, when used together, sound like the “2” and “4” positions in
a great Strat.


complete setup
P-Rails are best used in a matched neck and bridge
set. To get both humbucker and P-90 tones, use a two-way switch (push-pull or
mini-toggle). To have humbucker and P-90 tones and bring in the added dimension
of the single-coil Rail, use a three-way switch (DPDT on-off-on).


guitars
P-Rails can be used in any guitar set up for a traditional
humbucker or Trembucker. A single P-Rails will bring added dimension to your
guitar. However, to optimize P-Rails’ unique splitting capabilities and get the
best single-coil Rails tones, use a neck and bridge set.


available mods
Normally, in humbucking mode, P-Rails are wired in
series, for a high-output sound that works great for classic rock and heavier
tones. However, when wired in parallel, the coil mismatch produces a very usable
P.A.F.-style humbucker tone with less phase cancellation associated with
standard parallel wired humbuckers, complete with present upper-mid “bloom” and
pronounced string articulation.
