Description
Seymour Duncan Antiquity 2 Myth Mustang Bridge Pickup
The Antiquity II Myth bridge pickup delivers articulate, bell-like clarity with vintage compression that sits perfectly in a mix without sacrificing definition. Engineered for Fender Mustang guitars, this single-coil brings authentic 1960s character to recordings, with enough midrange presence to cut through without harshness. The result is a classic surf, indie, and alternative tone with genuine vintage voicing—ideal for tracking and mixing sessions that demand period-correct authenticity.
Tone & Voicing
Built with heavy formvar wire and calibrated Alnico 5 rod magnets, this pickup produces a warm, focused output with natural harmonic bloom. The 6.5 kΩ DC resistance yields a balanced, vintage-level output that pairs seamlessly with original-spec electronics or lightly modified circuits, making it responsive to subtle playing dynamics during recording.
Construction & Materials
Every detail reflects period-correct manufacturing: vintage-correct light gray flatwork base, lacquered and wax-potted construction for microphonic stability, and a durable cloth push-back cable. This potting method prevents feedback and microphony while preserving the natural resonance Seymour Duncan's Antiquity line is known for, ensuring clean, consistent captures across multiple takes.
