Seymour Duncan Little '78 Strat Prch Pickup Set

Seymour Duncan Little '78 Strat Parch Pickup Set

The Little '78 Strat Parch delivers the midrange punch and articulate response of '70s Strat tone in a compact single-coil-size humbucker format. These pickups bridge vintage character with modern construction, offering the tonal signature of that era without sacrificing the clarity and definition that today's playing demands. Built for rock, blues, and classic styles where authentic vintage voicing and controlled output matter on stage and in the studio.

Tone & Output Character

Built on Alnico II magnets and tuned to vintage output levels, these pickups produce a warm, slightly compressed response with naturally scooped midrange. The bridge pickup's 27.2 mV output and neck pickup's 20.2 mV output keep dynamics controlled and responsive, avoiding the harsh peaks that can plague overwound designs while maintaining articulate note definition across the frequency range.

Passive Design & Installation

Passive construction with 4-conductor wiring offers maximum flexibility for series, parallel, and split-coil configurations in your existing wiring scheme. The single-coil footprint allows drop-in installation into standard Strat pickguards without routing, making this a straightforward upgrade for instruments already in your collection or live rotation.
