Seymour Duncan Humbucker STL-3T Quarter Pound Tapped Rhythm Pickup For

Seymour Duncan STL-3T Quarter Pound Tapped Rhythm Pickup For Tele (Chrome Cover)

The STL-3T Quarter Pound captures thick, articulate rhythm tones with the studio flexibility of tap-coil switching. This pickup trades the vintage Tele quack for focused midrange presence and punchy attack, giving your neck position the control and output needed for layered arrangements and driven rhythm tracks while maintaining core Fender character in a mix.

Tone & Output for Recording

Quarter-inch diameter pole pieces and Alnico V rod magnets generate aggressive midrange definition with a resonant peak at 3.5 kHz (full coil) and 6.1 kHz (tapped), letting you dial in both fat, driven rhythm textures and brighter, more articulate attack for different sections and takes. The full coil delivers 17.38 kΩ DC resistance for substantial output that cuts through dense arrangements, while the tapped mode engages at 8 kΩ for lighter, more transparent voicing when tracking requires space in the mix.

Construction & Integration

Chrome-plated brass cover provides both visual consistency and shielding stability for hum-free recordings. The pickup ships with a 3-conductor lead pre-wired for tap functionality and single-conductor PVC cable, ready to integrate into your wiring scheme and capture both full and tapped voicings on the same take or in separate sessions.
