Seymour Duncan Cory Wong Clean Machine Neck White Pickup
The Cory Wong Clean Machine neck pickup is built for players who need articulate, defined single-coil response that cuts through live mixes without losing nuance. Designed in collaboration with Vulfpeck's Cory Wong, this pickup excels at capturing the dynamics of modern funk and clean electric work on stage. The overwound construction and Alnico IV magnet create a distinctive voice that bridges vintage character with contemporary punch—ready to deliver on gigs and in the studio alike.
Tone & Electronics
The 7.05k DCR and overwound construction push the output beyond standard single-coil specs, yielding a fatter, more defined tone without sacrificing the transparency required for funk articulation. Alnico IV magnets provide a balanced harmonic response—warm fundamentals with crystalline highs—ideal for both clean tones and light overdrive. This means your notes sit perfectly in a band mix while maintaining the articulation that makes your playing shine.
