During his tenure in Testament, Alex Skolnick helped pioneer the Bay Area Thrash sound – and he has continuously expanded his repertoire of styles following his departure. Whether playing solo, with his jazz trio, or in the re-united Testament, his playing and tone continues to inspire us.
Designed in conjunction with Alex, this humbucker set is tweaked to perfectly recreate his tone, from expressive melodies to aggressive palm muting. The neck is a vintage output, PAF style humbucker with an Alnico V magnet; the tone is rich and articulate. The bridge is wound hot, with a voicing that emphasizes punchy midrange, and rich harmonics.

This has been an adventure. ordered the set, but somehow it only recognized the Bridge Pickup as purchased !! SOo the nightmare began. Clled an ask for a change from black chrome to gold ,showed up in Black Chrome cover, then shipped it back,SEYMOUR DUNCAN then put correct cover on Bridge pickup,had to purchase neck pckup now made on production floor from dealer in Michigan !! Know I learned you can buy the set non custom shop at abetter price than what I paid.It seems like the company has changed that communication between departments is lacking as well as to thecustomer !!
