Seymour Duncan SDBR-1n Duckbuckers for Strat Cream Pickup

Seymour Duncan SDBR-1n Duckbuckers for Strat Cream Pickup

The SDBR-1n Duckbuckers deliver articulate, vintage-voiced humbucker tones in a single-coil Stratocaster format without sacrificing the response and clarity that make offset body guitars sing. These pickups integrate seamlessly into standard Strat routing, offering hum-canceling performance and flexible wiring options that expand sonic possibilities beyond traditional single-coil setups.

Tone & Voice

Vintage output and a ceramic bar magnet produce balanced, musical tones with natural breakup and sustain. The split-pole design with three adjustable pole pieces per coil ensures even string response across the Stratocaster's width while eliminating the hum associated with traditional single coils.

Design & Build

Constructed entirely in Santa Barbara, CA, each pickup features wax potting for squeal-free, stable operation under stage conditions. The 4-conductor lead wire accommodates series wiring via push/pull switch or mini-toggle, allowing you to transform the pickup into a hotter humbucker voice on demand—valuable flexibility for gigging players who need tonal range without swapping pickups.
