Seymour Duncan TS-1, Triple Shot, TB, Cr

Seymour Duncan TS-1 Triple Shot TB Cr

The Seymour Duncan TS-1 Triple Shot is a compact switching interface that installs seamlessly into humbucker and Trembucker pickups, unlocking four distinct tonal options from a single pickup position. Its low-profile design preserves pickup height while dual slider switches provide intuitive, real-time access to series, parallel, and split-coil configurations—essential for tracking, overdubbing, and mixing sessions where tonal flexibility keeps your workflow moving without resorting to different guitars or pickup swaps.

Design & Installation

This unit's tight footprint—measuring 2.780 x 1.470 inches inside with a 0.200-inch ring height—fits discretely within standard pickup cavities without compromising your instrument's resonance or acoustic character in the recording chain. The 3.076-inch pickup mounting hole spacing and 3.20 x 1.513-inch trim ring mounting hole spacing align with conventional humbucker dimensions, ensuring straightforward installation and reliable operation across multiple sessions. A compact 1.353 x 0.402-inch circuit board and 43.5 ft soundboard radius maintain minimal acoustic coloration, preserving the natural tone your mic captures.

Tone & Switching Functionality

Access four distinct sounds—individual coil splits, series operation, and parallel operation—via two small slider switches, each assigned a specific tonal option. The TS-1 works with nearly any four-conductor humbucker and Trembucker, expanding your recording palette from a single pickup without sacrificing clarity, articulation, or response in the mix. Note that nickel and gold-covered Trembuckers are not compatible with this system.
