Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound Strat - Neck/Middle/Bridge - High Output Electric Guitar Pickup

These pickups are sensational for Stratocaster. Increase the output at least double fold. And retain the sought after sound of the instrument. I have purchased 4 of these for both of my Strats. (neck and bridge). ALSO ! USE THE EXISTING PICKUP SPACERS plus the ones included. If not, they will be flopping around like Grandma's old tits.

Very good pickup for the price! Fit in original pick guard of a Melody Maker.

I was looking to replace some cheaper pickups with one that has a bit more oomph, and this is it. I got mine at a pretty great price (I think $65?), so it's right there at the edge of being budget friendly. I placed mine in the neck position and it's been great. In my guitar, I have HHS setup (where this Seymour Duncan is the S), and have 500k pots with a .047u cap, and the Seymour Duncan really shines. I'm super happy to finally have a premium pickup that I can show off and get great sound, and it was at a great price. The official product description said "fat punchy sound", and that's accurate. It still does have a very slight single coil hum BUT I felt like it was much less than my previous pickups.

In a SSS Strat I use this now in the bridge. It simply blows away any other bridge single coil away, I like em better than hot rails. It truly does have a humbucker type depth, clarity, punch. Handles extreme overdrive with note and string separation. I use them in my two Telecasters too.

I added this pickup to my Telecaster. I had been told these were very strong and would fit my purpose. I'm not especially fond of the Strat configuration with the middle pickup. I mounted this pickup under the pickguard with a separate wiring circuit. It augments the tone just enough when combined with one or both of the Tele pickups.

Excelente

Great for my $100 guitar

Nice Strato Sound... certainly better than a lot of stock Fender and Squier Pups... but i expected a lot more. When talking about single coil pups, well, Telecaster is better than Strato... that's it. I got a AmStd Telecaster and it beats all the Strato single pups i've ever tried. I thought this would be the one pup that will make me fall in love with the strato sound, but not... If you love Stratos... this is a nice pickup. My stratofriends loved it... But if you're a Telecaster Man, like me... stay on Tele's classics.

I love Seymour Duncan pickups. I have them in my strat and they are fantastic. But this beast is something else. I bought a cheapo lap steel guitar to upgrade as a project. I wanted a single coil pickup, but one that was "hot". Then I came across the quarter pounder. I must say, its an incredible pickup, especially when you consider its form factor. It plays really smooth clean, but can turn into a snarling, growling beast,with loads of sustain. The most impressive thing for me, is that it has several voices, depending on how much volume your guitar is kicking out, not just full, middle and nearly off. It also reacts very well to the tone pot. All in all, if I was to recommend a pickup for a single pickup guitar, it would be this. Seymour knows his stuff.

Just what i need seymour duncan pickup the best

La description est très bonne; ce micro a un son assez typique p90. Le son est un peu comme un micro simple (c'en est un) qui aurait pris des amphétamines. Il adore la saturation et sait vraiment bien trancher dans le mix pour des solos endiablés. Il est également très sensible au bouton de volume (si vous avez un potentiomètre digne de ce nom, type CTS etc...) et il est capable de très vite revenir sur du crunch (genre volume à 6/7) ou même du clean (genre volume à 3). Le son par contre n'est pas très typique d'une strat, il faut donc s'attendre à dénaturer un peu sa strat en l'installant. Il peut se monter à n'importe quelle position, il fait des merveilles en position chevalet (bridge). Je ne l'ai pas testé en micro manche mais je pense qu'il a un son bien trop épais pour cela (peut être avec un potard 500k du coup), sauf éventuellement pour des solos avec pas mal de distortion. C'est au passage le micro utilisé par Ritchie Blackmore....je vous aide un peu plus....Deep Purple ! Oui c'est ça, le son de smoke on the water, ce fameux riff pas trop saturé et ce joli solo bien bluesy à souhait viennent de ce micro.

私はこのピックアップの１９８０年代ものの、ダンカンロゴが未だなかったものを１つ使っています。 最近ＳＳＨの古いアイバニーズのギター（やはり８０年代のロードスター）にフロントは旧ＳＳＬ－４ をとりつけ、リアにはギブソンのターティーフィンガー（やはり８０年代のもの）をとりつけ、センター にシェクターモンスタートーンをつけ、ダーティーフィンガーとはセレクトレバーでシングル同士の ハーフトーンが出るように配線しましたが、全く相性が合わず音もよく出ませんでした。 そこで今回現行ＳＳＬ－４をつけたところ、相性は抜群でソロもカッティングもブライトで音抜けも良く ハーフトーンもばっちり決まりました。現行のものは配線の出所が旧型とは違っていましたが、音に 差はなく、一歩間違えればジャンクになり兼ねないギターが、時を経て甦った感じです。

Imprescindible en tu strato si quieres sonar como blackmore. Fácil de instalar, alta ganancia y claros medio-agudos.
