Seymour Duncan SDBR-1b Duckbuckers for Strat Black Pickup

Seymour Duncan SDBR-1b Duckbuckers for Strat Bridge Pickup – Black

The SDBR-1b Duckbuckers deliver a warm, articulate single-coil character in a humbucking format, bridging the gap between vintage Strat clarity and modern noise rejection. This bridge model slots directly into a standard Fender American Standard Stratocaster pickup route without modification, making it an ideal choice for players seeking vintage output without sacrificing hum cancellation.

Design & Specifications

Built by hand in Santa Barbara, California, this pickup combines a ceramic bar magnet with a distinctive split-pole pattern featuring three pole pieces on each coil. Six fully adjustable pole pieces allow precise voicing and output balancing across the string set, giving you control over the pickup's response to your specific setup.

Tone & Live Performance

The vintage output characteristic keeps the pickup responsive to pick dynamics and playing technique, delivering articulation rather than compressed gain. Wax potting eliminates microphonic squeal, ensuring stable, feedback-free operation on stage under high-gain conditions. A 4-conductor lead wire enables flexible wiring options for series, parallel, or split configurations, adapting to your rig's demands.
