Seymour Duncan - Hot Rails SHR 1 N

[fazbotguitarguy]

would this be good for prog metal/heavy metal?

[10078g]

@fazbotguitarguy dave murrey , lead from iron maiden uses them , so yes

[joeyplusamanda]

How would this do for punchy blues with a lot of *pop* semi clean? (neck pos)

I am also looking for a smooth Vai sound from my neck pos. How would the SHR 1N do?

[MarkyGRocks]

@joeyplusamanda I think it would sound great, what guitar you putting it in? you might also wanna listen to the single coils that Seymour do, like the Quarter Pound.

cheers

@MarkyGRocks I am putting it in a stock MIM Lonestar strat. Its got a pearly gates bridge and tex-mex single coils. HSS.

I really want to be able to get a smooth sound while being pretty distorted (Vai as I mentioned).

[MarkyGRocks]

@joeyplusamanda Yeah it should sound really good!!

@joeyplusamanda

steve vai uses dimarzio evolution humbuckers in all his guitars :)

[KronikDethPainz]

this is excellent, what pickups have you got middle and neck to go with them?

[MarkyGRocks]

@KronikDethPainz Hey, the pickup in the neck is a Hot Rails SHR 1 N, the bridge pickup is also a hot rails but its the SHR 1B. the mid pickup is a noisless fender single coil.

Cheers

@MarkyGRocks nice!, thanks :)

Nice playing mate, good demo of the hot rails....thanks for uploading

[kaskas55]

Good sound & playing bro..nice pickups!

[ALcreates]

Damn! I shouldve gotten this for my neck! I got the SHR-1b :-(

[MarkyGRocks]

@ALcreates Hey, i wouldnt worry too much the SHR 1B sounds equally as good, you could buy the SHR 1N and then swap them over.

[zippguitaro]

so, this works as humbuckers? are they good for pinch harmonics? and can you get that heavy metal sound out of these? Great video

[MarkyGRocks]

@zippguitaro Yeah they are in effect humbuckers, and you can definatley get that heavy sound your after from them.

[MJRroxGTR]

you got funk bro.

[Archurroh]

Juicy!!!!!!!

[ramon241094]

What kind of Strat is it?? is this a aerodyne strat??, amazing sound!!!

[MarkyGRocks]

@ramon241094 Hello, no its not an aerodyne, its an American designer edition although i put my own scratch plate on which i made myself when i put the rails on.
