Seymour Duncan Strings, Antiquity Mod Vintg Ex-Light 9s

Seymour Duncan Strings Antiquity Mod Vintage Extra Light 9s

The Seymour Duncan Antiquity Extra Light 9s capture a smooth, responsive character that tracks articulate details in recordings while contributing vintage-focused warmth and sustain to your mix. These hand-wound strings are engineered to balance bright articulation with the mellowed character of aged instruments, translating to recordings that sit naturally in production without requiring heavy processing.

Construction & Materials

Hand-wound in the USA using high-carbon steel cores wrapped in pure nickel, these strings resist corrosion while maintaining the organic resonance that records with clarity and dimension. The pure-nickel wrap provides a warmer, less aggressive top end compared to nickel-plated steel alternatives—critical for capturing presence without harshness in close-miked sessions.

Gauge & Playability

The Extra Light 9-42 gauge (.9, .11, .16, .24, .32, .42) reduces finger fatigue during extended tracking sessions and minimizes string tension while retaining enough mass for defined lows and mids. This lighter gauge suits both single-note passages and rhythm work without sacrificing intonation stability or durability across multiple takes.
