Seymour Duncan Scooped Strat Middle RWRP Parchment Pickup

Seymour Duncan Scooped Strat Middle RWRP Parchment Pickup

The Seymour Duncan Scooped Strat Middle RWRP captures articulate, vintage-voiced single-coil character with a distinctly scooped midrange that sits naturally in a mix without muddiness or harshness. Built in the United States, this pickup combines underwound 1950s-style construction with slightly elevated pole pieces to enhance sustain and presence during recording and mixing. The reverse-wound configuration eliminates hum when paired with standard-wound pickups in a three-pickup setup, delivering cleaner recordings and cleaner post-production workflows.

Tone & Voice

With a 6.37k DCR and Alnico V magnet, this pickup produces vintage output without sacrificing articulation or clarity in the recording chain. The scooped EQ profile emphasizes treble and bass while pulling back the mids—ideal for rhythm tracks that maintain definition across frequencies or lead passages that compress naturally and sit cohesively in the final mix.

Construction & Specifications

Wired with cloth push-back cable and 2-conductor wiring, this passive single-coil integrates into any standard Strat middle position for straightforward session setup. The underwound design and elevated pole height deliver improved dynamic response and harmonic complexity, capturing the nuance and expression needed for professional recordings.
