Seymour Duncan Vintage Staggered SSL-1 Single Coil Pickup for Strat

Perfect, sounds like I think David gilmour sounds

I bought this Seymour Duncan SSL-1 pickup to use in the bridge position on my strat because I was not happy with the tone of the original. This SSL-1 also brings out the 1st E string better. If fitted with Fender pickups it is reverse wound and has to go white to black and black to white to stay in phase with the other two pickups. This has a fuller softer tone to the original.

Awesome versatility with these pick ups. Have had them on my guitar for a few months and coupled with the rest of the upgrades give the dynamic range a huge boost.

Pop it in the neck position - can’t go wrong. Juicy juicy sound mmmmmmmmmmm highly reccomend

probably better than the Fender official replacement!

brilliant service and just the sound i want

Sounds great in my H-S-S Config along with the SSL2 I also purchased.

Great Strat pickup

6 years ago I bought as used Mexican Strat. The hum coming off those pickups was ridiculous regardless of gain. I got sick of it quickly and put in a competitor's set of noiseless pickups which I've enjoyed for several years. Two years ago I bought a gutted Epiphone Les Paul for 30 bucks, and put the Jazz/JB combo in it during the build and was floored at the tone quality. So much so that I swapped the Telecaster vintage set into my Tele. Floored once more... and it was dead silent. The hum was actually there, but you had to stack every overdrive I had and boost the front end of my Marshall to hear it. So that's the backstory leading up to the SSL-1s. I was on the fence because I did not want the crazy hum level to come back. I took the plunge on a set of SSL-1 neck, SSL-1 middle, SSL-5 bridge. I got them installed last night and they're simply amazing. Neck and middle are clear as a bell, in-between tones are brilliant. And most of all, the hum is totally minimal. It is indeed there, but it's night and day better than the stock Mexican pickups from years ago. Very, very tolerable and the tones are just brilliant.

Top

Usato in una configurazione Tele Nashville al centro. Ottimo suono, caldo ma non eccessivamente potente. Curiosamente ho dovuto invertire bianco con nero perché se cablato con il bianco come segnale e il nero come massa assieme a due Nocaster 51 Fender si era messo in controfase.

Monté sur ma fender jagstang en micro manche le son est formidable. Couplé à un double sh4 en chevalet les deux micros si tu parfaitement complémentaire

The pickup sounds great. Better than the EMG active it replaced.
