Flexible coil splitting humbucker is ready for anything.
The Seymor Duncan SHPR 1 P Rails is a full size humbucker pickup that can be 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
Seymour Duncan 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 Patent Applied For style humbucker tone with less phase cancellation associated with standard parallel wired humbuckers, complete with present upper mid "bloom" and pronounced string articulation.
