Twin Custom Burstbucker Alnico II humbuckers deliver scorching rock tones

If you covet the sustain, crunch, and midrange that are Slash's trademark, it all starts with the pickups.

These pickups are wound with just the right amount of boosted output to make your guitar sing. The Slash Les Paul Standard boasts hand-wired electronics with Orange Drop capacitors to ensure spot-on vintage tone.
