I want to know everything about apt-1 pickups for a Les Paul
よくある質問
The APH-1, known as the Alnico II Pro, is the legendary pickup that Slash used in his handmade replica guitar to record his biggest hits. The APH-2 is the official Slash Signature set designed to replicate that specific magic. While both focus on a classic rock vibe rather than the high-output trends of the 1980s, the APH-2 is specifically tuned to capture the nuances of the gear used on his most famous recordings.
During the mid-1980s, most guitarists used high-output pickups and neon, pointy guitars for a saturated shred tone. Slash moved in a different direction by using a vintage-style Les Paul equipped with Alnico II Pro pickups. This choice allowed him to bring a classic rock sensibility back to hard rock, favoring a tone that sounded like it was unearthed from a different era rather than following the 'hotter is better' trend.
If you are looking to capture the specific magic of Slash's sound, both the APH-1 and the APH-2 Slash Signature set are excellent choices. The APH-1 is the original model found in his famous recording replica, while the APH-2 is a dedicated signature version. Both Seymour Duncan models utilize Alnico II magnets to provide the warm, vintage-style output necessary for achieving that iconic hard rock sound found on his classic albums.
