Seymour Duncan's most popular single-coil pickup
set for Strat, also known as the "California
50's" set. The hand-ground Alnico 5 magnets and
moderate windings (Heavy Formvar wire) yield a
bright and punchy tone with vintage output.
Perfect for players who need accurate
traditional single-coil tone, especially with
clean and mildly distorted amp settings. The
SSL-1 has a focused "bell" tone with a light
bass response. Comes with waxed cloth hookup
cable and vintage-style "keyed" bottom plate.
Reverse wound, reverse polarity (RW/RP) middle
pickup for hum canceling in positions "2" and
"4" on the five-way switch.
