I love mine. I'd buy another for my '51, but I want to keep experimenting.

Hell yeah,bro....It's good to see somebody as excited as I am about the duncan distortions:firedevil No dout about it they f******rock:headbang:
 
Re: SH-6 Distortion... yeah baby yeah!!

What did you put it in?? I got a distortion set in my Edwards LP and I loved it in the bridge! I did pull it for a custom, but it may end up back in. Its slammin in one of my Charvel 4s now!
 
Re: SH-6 Distortion... yeah baby yeah!!

Cgord: nice clips Bro..

Do you (or anyone else) have clips in standard tuning?
 
Re: SH-6 Distortion... yeah baby yeah!!

I am geting ready to re-install a Duncan Distortion set back into one of my Les Pauls. They are very cool if you like brutal sounding guitars.
 
Re: SH-6 Distortion... yeah baby yeah!!

Jeff, I have clips in standard tuning, but none with the Distortion.

People using the neck SH-6, how is it? I've only installed the bridge unit, & will eventually want a neck pup to match it.
 
Re: SH-6 Distortion... yeah baby yeah!!

The Distortion neck model is hot, thick and nasty just like the SH-6 but has a very usable clean tone. It's a great match for the SH-6.
 
Re: SH-6 Distortion... yeah baby yeah!!

Slammin' to the big beat!

Love that pup - and it's only as brutal as your chops....

I just put a Distortion neck into my Hamer Studio a week ago (it replaced an A4 '59). The bridge pickup is a PATB1 (the pic below is old). Anyway, the distortion is great for soloing. It has a presence to it that the '59 didn't, which keeps it from mushing out. It also has plenty of output to keep up with the PATB1 (in fact, I had to put the Distortion pretty much at the level of the ring in order for the two to balance), but it works well with the volume knob (which I've previously had little use for) if the gain needs to be toned down. It's not as good as the '59 when it comes to clean stuff, but it's still pretty good. So far I'm lovin it. I have a PATB2 that I could throw in the bridge, but I'm probably going to keep the PATB1 in there for now since it's my favorite bridge pickup and save the PATB2 for later.

Great taste bro!PATB1 is the best Bridge PU on earth for that kind of guitar!Nothing can touch it (and i hope we get a new PATB for forum Bro's custom project)
 
Re: SH-6 Distortion... yeah baby yeah!!

The DD is a classic! In a Les paul it's a match made in heaven.
 
Re: SH-6 Distortion... yeah baby yeah!!

The Distortion is a great pickup. My favorite one ever was an old JB wound to like 17.3k, and I swapped the mag for an oversized ceramic. Fan-freakin-tastic pickup.
