whats the sh and the tb stand for in seymour duncan pickups and whats the difference!!!!!!!!1

The "TBs" are meant to go into the bridge position and the "SHs" are meant to go into the neck position. The reason that they are labeled as such is that they are specially "voiced" to work in those areas.

Do yourself a favor and grab yourself a set of PA-TB3 and PA-TB1n. They are my absolute favorite all around humbuckers on the planet. If you want to hear a clip you can go here:

And listen to the song Recession. The spacey clean rhythm (not the palm muted stuff at the beginning) stuff and solo were recorded using this set. F**king phenomenal pickups. I promise you, you won't be sorry.

The TB is for use on a guitar with a floyd rose or similar floating bridge systems.
