Description
Seymour Duncan Hot Chicken Strat Stack Bridge White Pickup
The Hot Chicken Strat Stack captures aggressive, articulate single-coil tone with the output punch typically associated with humbucker designs. This bridge-position pickup cuts through a mix with clarity and presence, delivering the higher gain foundation needed for overdrive and distortion without sacrificing note definition or tracking precision in your recordings.
Design & Construction
Built entirely in the USA at Seymour Duncan's Santa Barbara factory, this pickup uses a stacked coil design with A5 chamfered rod magnets to achieve its distinctive tonal character. The stacked configuration delivers bridge-position aggression while maintaining the single-coil-sized footprint required for direct Stratocaster bridge installation—no modifications needed.
Output & Connectivity
The pickup ships with a four conductor cable, providing wiring flexibility for split-coil configurations or standard installation. This connectivity option enables additional tonal possibilities in your signal chain, from coil-splitting for texture variation to hum-canceling configurations that reduce noise during studio sessions.
