For guitar players who want it all, the ground breaking design of Seymour Duncan P-Rails delivers three distinct tonal voices in a single pickup: a fat humbucker, a beefy P-90, and a traditional single-coil Strat tone.Seymour Duncan introduces the SHPR-2b P-Rails Hot, delivering the same tonal flexibility as its predecessor, but specifically designed to provide a punchier, more aggressive tone in the bridge position. The P-Rails Hot features a beefed up coil wind and 2 powerful Alnico 8 magnets, which rival ceramic magnets in power but maintain the sweet sustain Alnico is known for. The P-90 coil in the P-Rails Hot is wound with a special wire type, selected for output and clarity. This P-90 is loud! The rail mode is hotter thanks to the power of the Alnico 8, and the series humbucker mode is huge.P-Rails Hot are a direct humbucker retrofit and can be used in any guitar set up for a traditional humbucker or Trembucker spacing. To maximize P-Rails Hot's unique splitting capabilities and get the most tonal versatility, it is recommended for use in tandem with a standard Seymour Duncan P-Rails (sold separately) in the neck position with a two-way switch (push-pull or mini-toggle) to get both humbucker and P-90 tones. Use a three-way switch (DPDT on-off-on) to bring in the single-coil Rail tones. Or, for the ultimate in versatility, use Seymour Duncan's Triple Shot switching mounting ring (sold separately).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 very usable moderate-output humbucker tones with less of the phase cancellation often associated with standard parallel-wired humbuckers.P-Rails Hot are recommended for all styles of music. They are built in the USA at Seymour Duncan's Santa Barbara, California workshop.
