Seymour Duncan Cory Wong Clean Machine Neck White Pickup
The Cory Wong Clean Machine neck pickup captures articulate, defined single-coil response with exceptional clarity and brightness for studio recording. Designed in collaboration with Vulfpeck's Cory Wong, this pickup excels at cutting through a mix while maintaining the nuanced dynamics essential to modern funk and clean electric tracking. The overwound construction and Alnico IV magnet create a distinctive voice that bridges vintage character with contemporary punch, making it an excellent choice for capturing both crisp rhythm parts and expressive lead lines in the studio.
Recording Tone & Electronics
The 7.05k DCR and overwound construction push the output beyond standard single-coil specs, yielding a fatter, more defined tone without sacrificing the transparency required for funk articulation in recorded sessions. Alnico IV magnets provide a balanced harmonic response—warm fundamentals with crystalline highs—ideal for capturing both clean tones and light overdrive on tape, ensuring your recordings sit well across multiple mixes and genres.
