Seymour Duncan SSL-5L Custom Staggered Strat RWRP Left-Handed

Description

11202-05-RwRp-L The ultimate medium-output overwound Stratocaster pickup, this is the single coil in the bridge position of David Gilmour’s Signature Fender Stratocaster. David Gilmour needed a beefed-up tone for his famous Black Strat, so Seymour wound what became the Custom Staggered medium-output Stratocaster pickup. It was and continues to be an honor to work with such a legend. The Custom Staggered is a special overwound single coil that creates a great balance of increased power and classic Stratocaster tonal character. It will provide bigger, fatter chords, and cut through the mix more clearly than a traditional Strat pickup, all while retaining the magic and mojo that make a Strat sound like a Strat. Single notes are bold and strong, and solos really sing. Use in the bridge position with a pair of Vintage Staggered pickups in the neck and middle for the Gilmour-approved setup. Use a Custom Staggered RWRP in the middle for a hum-canceling setup in positions 2 & 4. The Custom Staggered Strat pickup is also available in a 7-string version. The coils are constructed with hand-ground Alnico 5 rod magnets, lacquered and wound, and are wax potted for squeal-free performance. We use modern Forbon (not triangular) oval flatwork that allows this pickup to fit into any guitar routed for single coils.
