Seymour Duncan Lari Basilio TB Chrome Cover Pickup Set
This signature pickup set delivers a versatile three-pickup configuration engineered to capture single-coil clarity in the neck and middle while providing high-output bridge punch for aggressive rhythm work and lead tracking. The chrome covers offer visual polish while the handcrafted construction ensures consistent, reliable performance across all three positions in the recording environment. The result is balanced output across neck, middle, and bridge positions—ideal for mixing-friendly recordings where each zone maintains clarity and definition without fighting for space.
Tonal Character & Recording Performance
The neck and middle positions feature moderate-output single-coil voicings with carefully mixed Alnico magnet grades—Alnico 5 under the low strings, Alnico 4 under the highs on the neck, and Alnico 2 under the highs on the middle—yielding articulate, responsive character that sits naturally in a mix with organic compression. The bridge position employs a high-output Trembucker with Alnico V magnets, designed to cut through dense arrangements with authority while maintaining definition for modern production tracking without excessive harshness or mud.
Build & Studio Integration
Handmade in Santa Barbara, California, these pickups reflect meticulous assembly and quality control for reliable studio recording sessions. The Tele-style neck pickup pairs with a Strat-style voiced middle pickup in a Tele-style rhythm-sized footprint, enabling seamless integration into offset and solid-body platforms for flexible session instruments. Chrome covers protect the coils while contributing to the set's polished, professional appearance—a refinement that translates to recording chain consistency.

Frequently Asked Questions
What guitar types can these pickups be installed in?
The Tele-style neck pickup and Strat-style voiced middle pickup in Tele-style rhythm-sized footprint are designed for seamless integration into offset and solid-body platforms. You should verify your guitar's pickup cavity routing matches these specifications before purchase.
Why are different Alnico magnet grades used in each pickup?
The neck position uses Alnico 5 under the low strings and Alnico 4 under the highs for balanced articulation; the middle uses Alnico 5 lows and Alnico 2 highs for responsive character; the bridge uses Alnico V for high-output punch and definition.
