Description
Seymour Duncan Scooped Strat White Pickup Set
The Seymour Duncan Scooped Strat White set captures the articulate, chimey character of classic '50s Stratocaster pickups with modern underwound construction and extended pole pieces for enhanced clarity and sustain. These passive single-coils track with precision across genres, delivering that signature scooped midrange response that sits naturally in dense mixes without requiring heavy EQ intervention. The white covers and cloth push-back wiring integrate seamlessly into traditionally spec'd Strat builds for straightforward session integration.
Recording & Mix Performance
Underwound '50s-style design creates the scooped midrange character that carves definition in a mix, emphasizing highs and lows while maintaining clear articulation across the frequency spectrum. Extended pole piece heights provide increased output and sustained note clarity, making these pickups responsive to pick attack and finger dynamics—critical for capturing dynamic performances across all three positions without need for re-recording.
Specifications & Compatibility
Built on Alnico 5 magnets for warm, resonant tone with excellent treble response and harmonic complexity. DC resistance values are precisely matched across the set—Neck: 6.13k, Middle: 6.37k, Bridge: 7.23k—ensuring consistent tone balance and seamless blending between pickup positions during tracking and overdubs.
