Description
Seymour Duncan Scooped Strat White Pickup Set
The Seymour Duncan Scooped Strat White set delivers the articulate, chimey character of classic '50s Stratocaster pickups with modern underwound construction and extended pole pieces for enhanced clarity and sustain. These passive single-coils excel in genres from classic rock to surf, offering that signature scooped midrange response without sacrificing definition. The white covers and cloth push-back wiring integrate seamlessly into traditionally spec'd Strat builds.
Tone & Frequency Response
Underwound '50s-style design creates the scooped midrange character these pickups are known for, emphasizing highs and lows while maintaining clear articulation across the frequency spectrum. Extended pole piece heights provide increased output and sustained note clarity, making these pickups responsive to pick attack and finger dynamics across all three positions—critical for live performance where your dynamics need to register across a full stage mix.
Specifications & Compatibility
Built on Alnico 5 magnets for warm, resonant tone with excellent treble response and harmonic complexity. DC resistance values are precisely matched across the set—Neck: 6.13k, Middle: 6.37k, Bridge: 7.23k—ensuring consistent tone balance and seamless blending between pickup positions. This consistency matters on stage, where tonal predictability and smooth switching support reliable gigging and studio reliability.
