Description
Seymour Duncan Antiquity for Jaguar Pickup Set
The Seymour Duncan Antiquity Jaguar Pickup Set captures the warm, articulate character of vintage offset guitars through authentic construction that honors the instrument's original design. These pickups restore tonal clarity and dynamic response to Jaguars in the studio, delivering the jangly, cutting tones that sit perfectly in alternative and indie rock recordings without muddiness or phase issues.
Vintage Tone & Hum Cancellation
Calibrated Alnico II magnets paired with heavy formvar magnet wire produce the smooth, resonant output characteristic of mid-century offset designs—ideal for tracking clean, articulate performances and layering guitars without interference. The neck pickup is reverse wound and reverse polarity, enabling true hum-canceling performance when both pickups are engaged in the mix, eliminating ground loop noise and maintaining clarity in dense arrangements.
Construction & Installation
Hand-waxed potting, cloth push-back lead wire, and vintage-correct gray flatwork finish ensure long-term reliability and consistent performance across recording sessions. These pickups drop directly into existing Fender American Standard Jaguar covers and claws, requiring no routing or modification—a straightforward swap that keeps session setup efficient and minimizes downtime.
