Seymour Duncan SSL-1L Vintage Staggered Strat Left

Description

11201-01-L These “period correct” vintage output Strat pickups offer all the authentic bell-like tone enjoyed by Stratocaster players in the 50s. Our Vintage Staggered for Stratocaster pickups use hand-ground alnico 5 rod magnets and a heavy Formvar magnet wire with a special wind pattern to produce that bright, glassy, bell-like tone with all the bounce and sparkle you’d expect from the best 50s Strat pickups. Treble attack is crisp and immediate, while the low end remains articulate and focused. Chords ring out with clear note-to-note separation. The three pickup combination includes a standard neck and bridge pickup, and an RWRP, reverse wound reverse polarity middle pickup for hum-cancellation in the in-between positions. Since 1978, we’ve been building all of our vintage-style single coil Fender pickups with the right color and thickness of Forbon flatwork, along with the period correct magnet stagger. Each pickup comes complete with waxed and tinned cloth pushback hook-up wires and traditional keyed bottom plate. We hand file the flatwork, assemble, and lacquer the coil just as it was done during Fenders Golden Age. The Vintage Staggered for Strat pickups are hand built in Santa Barbara, CA, and are potted in our wax formulation for squeal-free performance.
