Description
The HS-2™ has history behind it. The HS™ series were the first humbucking Strat® replacement pickups we made in the early 1980s. Since then, the HS-2™ has become popular for two distinct qualities: in humbucking mode, it’s got a solid, natural sound that’s cleaner and brighter than a conventional humbucker, while single-coil mode creates one of the best vintage tones around. Because of its patented design, single-coil mode is not as noisy as a standard single-coil pickup. Taken together with the dead-quiet humbucking mode, this is an excellent pickup to use with rack systems and high-gain amps.
In the classic Strat® configuration, the HS-2™ works in all 3 positions. It can also be part of a mixed set with the HS-3™, and HS-4™ models. The HS-2™ also works in H-S-H combinations, recommended with PAF Pro®, FRED®, Air Classic™, and The Humbucker From Hell® in neck and bridge positions.
Recommended for all positions.

Aldicoso (verified buyer) –
I take offense on my review not being uploaded on you website Solo. Have purchase tens of items and spent over $15k on that, so no allowing me to tell everybody that what I have received from you and dimarizio was defective garbage, and that I’ve wasted my money with that is small behavior and little. The H2 pickup was shorted an therefore garbage and have never received such thing from Seymour D. or Lindy F. Will not buy dimarzio again (BTW their PAF 36 are also low quality and mediocre sound and I’ve wasted my money buying that from Solo as well). I stopped buying from Solo for now, thank you.
