311 Releases 10 Studio Album (Seymour Duncan)

Long time Seymour Duncan artists 311 will be releasing their 10th studio album with an amphitheater tour to follow. Guitarists Nick Hexum and Tim Mahoney, and bassist P-Nut have used a variety of Seymour Duncan pickups in their instruments over the years. Says Tim, “For the last 15 years, there’s always been some sort of Seymour Duncan pickup in my guitar.” For the new album Nick wanted a fatter single coil P-90 tone and found what he was looking for in our Phat Cats which are P-90 pickups under a humbucker cover. Tim is going back to a true vintage vibe with the Antiquity humbuckers, but he is also using the Custom Shop ’78 Model for something a little hotter and fatter. And P-Nut is using his favorite set up; the SMB-5d and SJ5-3n in his signature Warwick..
