Seymour Duncan Antiquity II for Telecaster Twang Pickup Set

The Antiquity II Telecaster Twang set delivers the crystalline, articulate single-coil character that cuts through a live mix and sits perfectly in the studio, with meticulous attention to vintage-correct construction that rewards working musicians and collectors alike. These hand-wound pickups pair period-authentic materials with Seymour Duncan's modern manufacturing precision, producing the bright, snappy response and natural harmonic complexity that made vintage Telecasters the go-to choice for stage and recording sessions.

Tone & Construction

Built with hand-ground Alnico 5 magnets, vintage push-back cloth wire, and period-correct pole stagger, these pickups capture the articulate midrange and bell-like treble of 1950s single-coil design. Custom aging, gray bottom flatwork, brass-plated steel baseplate, and lacquer-and-wax potting create a tonally focused, noise-resistant platform that preserves clarity and definition across all pickup selections and volumes—essential for gigging players who need reliability and consistency night after night.

Specifications & Compatibility

The bridge pickup (11024-33) delivers 6.6 kΩ DC resistance, while the neck pickup (11024-32) measures 7.9 kΩ, both tuned to vintage output for authentic dynamic response and natural breakup characteristics that respond predictably to your playing dynamics and amp. True single-coil construction with cloth push-back cabling ensures direct, uncolored signal transmission to your amplifier.
