Hot vintage strat pickup

This pick up was perfect for the bridge position of my 68 reverse stratocaster. It struck a nice balance with the other two low impedance pups. Exactly what I was looking for!

David Gilmour uses this pickup in the bridge position on his black strat.

Need I say more? I mean the guitar actually has a book written about it! Much hotter than Fender standard strat pickups - something like 13,000 winds as opposed to most Strat pickups which typically have between 6000 - 7000 winds. I built a Black Strat to Gilmour specs and it sounds awesome in the bridge position. Really good value when you consider what Fender Custom Shop pickups cost. Put it in the bridge of your Strat. You won't regret it!Read full review

If it's good enough for Gilmour...

Well now that I have the same pups as David Gilmour my playing should improve...right???
LOL!!!
I think these are one of the best deals in 3rd party pups right now...lot's of stuff in the $100r>price range doesn't sound appreciably better...and this is one of SD's older designs:)Read full review

Nice pickup choice for the bridge

Seymour Duncan SSL-5 always has been my choice of bridge position pickup for most my strats.

A lot more output & gain for a single coil bridge, and still manages to keep the single coil glassiness.

Definitely would recommend it.

Rock on!

Another great pickup from Seymour Duncan! Loaded these in the neck and middle with a TB-4 in the bridge of a Strat. Much better balance volume and tone wise than a vintage single coil.

Love this pickup !

This pickup is much better than the stock 82 bridge pickup that I had in my strat. It helps me push my amps wonderfully. I wish I would have bought a pickup like this along time ago.

Pleasantly pleased

Very pronounced highrange tones, not quite as full as i imagined,but ideal pushed with gain or overdrive. Better than the stock pickup in my mex strat....
