Roswell Pickups SHR Neck & Center White Humbucker Pickup

Roswell Pickups SHR Neck & Center White — Rail Humbucker for ST-Style Guitars

Built for the neck and center positions of an ST-style electric guitar, the SHR Neck & Center White is a single-sized rail humbucker from Roswell Pickups that uses a single blade pole piece and a ceramic bar magnet — no exposed pole screws. The result is even string-to-string response, and the white cover matches classic Stratocaster aesthetics for a drop-in upgrade.

What Sets the SHR Apart

What defines this pickup is its rail/blade construction — a single flat blade replaces the six individual pole pieces found on conventional humbuckers. This ensures the pickup captures sound evenly throughout its entire length, even when applying bends or vibrato. Combined with a ceramic bar magnet, the design is optimized for high-gain applications and favored by heavy metal guitarists who need tight, focused tone with strong noise rejection.
