Seymour Duncan SSL-2 Vintage Flat for Stratocaster Pickup

Vintage Flat humbucker ideal for modern guitarists and light-gauge strings.

The Seymour Duncan Vintage Flat for Stratocaster pickup delivers all the chime and sparkle of the Vintage Staggered Strat model, but has flat alnico 5 rod magnets that provide a more even string balance for modern guitars with a larger neck radius, as well as players using lighter gauge strings. The flat poles also give this pickup a little less edge for an overall smoother tone. The middle pickup is reverse wound, reverse polarity to provide hum-canceling operation in positions 2 and 4, along with the perfect clucky in-between sound. Use a full set for a truly vintage vibe or use in the neck and middle with a Custom Flat in the bridge for a more rocking setup. If purchased as a calibrated set, the bridge pickup is wound slightly hotter for better overall balance between positions.
