Description
Seymour Duncan Scooped Strat Middle RWRP White Pickup
The Scooped Strat Middle RWRP delivers the characteristic honk and presence of a classic Strat middle position with a pronounced midrange scoop that cuts through a mix without fighting your other pickups. This Alnico V-loaded single coil is hand-crafted in the USA and voiced for recording sessions and mixing scenarios where articulate, vintage-output tone with balanced response in three-pickup configurations matters most.
Tone & Electronics
Built with Alnico V magnets and measuring 6.37k DCR, this pickup produces vintage-output levels suitable for clean tones, light breakup, and transparent overdrive stacking. The scooped midrange character makes it an ideal complement to bridge and neck pickups, reducing mud in the middle position while maintaining the articulation and snap essential to classic Strat voices in tracked recordings.
Design & Specifications
The pickup features a cloth push-back cable for reliable, noise-free signal transmission and is engineered as a passive circuit requiring no batteries or external power. Its RWRP (Reverse Wound, Reverse Polarity) configuration ensures hum cancellation when blended with standard-wound neck and bridge pickups, a critical feature for clean, noise-free captures and authentic three-pickup Strat operation in the studio.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does RWRP mean, and why does it matter?
RWRP stands for Reverse Wound, Reverse Polarity. This configuration cancels hum when the middle pickup is blended with standard-wound neck and bridge pickups, a critical feature for authentic three-pickup Strat operation without unwanted 60-cycle noise.
What output level and tone character should I expect?
At 6.37k DCR, this pickup delivers vintage-output levels suitable for clean tones, light breakup, and transparent overdrive stacking. Its Alnico V magnet and scooped midrange voicing provide articulate snap while reducing mud in the middle position.
Is this pickup compatible with my Strat?
Yes, this pickup uses a standard Strat-compatible mount and features a 2-conductor cloth push-back cable. It's a passive circuit requiring no batteries or external power, making it a direct drop-in replacement for your middle-position pickup.
What styles of music is this pickup designed for?
The Scooped Strat Middle excels in blues, rock, country, and indie music where articulate, balanced tone and three-pickup versatility matter most. It is not optimized for metal or djent styles.
How does this compare to other vintage Strat middle pickups?
The Seymour Duncan Scooped Strat Middle offers similar vintage-output character and USA hand-crafted construction as the Fender Custom Shop 69 Strat Middle, Lindy Fralin Vintage Hot Strat Middle, and Lollar Imperial Strat Middle, but its RWRP configuration and scooped voicing are purpose-built for three-pickup middle-position balance.
