Seymour Duncan Jimi Hendrix Signature Strat Set, White Pickup
This Seymour Duncan Jimi Hendrix Signature pickup set delivers the articulate, responsive character that defined one of guitar's greatest voices. Handcrafted in Santa Barbara with period-correct specifications, these pickups excel at capturing both the crystalline single-coil snap of clean tones and the singing sustain of driven lead work. The white finish complements vintage and modern Strats alike while maintaining the tonal authenticity Hendrix's legacy demands.
Pickup Design & Construction
Alnico 5 magnets paired with 6.07 DCR on neck and middle pickups produce the warmth and output balance essential to Hendrix's signature sound. The reverse magnet stagger ensures even response across the fretboard, while the cloth push-back cable provides period-correct construction and reliable shielding for gigging conditions.
Installation & Compatibility
Drop these into most standard Stratocaster models with no modification required—a straightforward upgrade path for players looking to refresh their tone without a full instrument swap. The middle pickup features no RWRP (Reverse Wound Reverse Polarity), maintaining traditional hum characteristics in middle-pickup positions.
