Seymour Duncan STK-S4m Stack Plus Strat Parchment Pickup

Seymour Duncan STK-S4m Stack Plus Strat Parchment Pickup

The STK-S4m Stack Plus eliminates the 60-cycle hum that traditionally plagues single-coil Strats without sacrificing the open, articulate tone you need on stage. Hand-built in Santa Barbara with meticulous construction and wax potting, this middle-position pickup maintains the clarity and snap expected from a vintage-output design while staying dead silent in noisy venues. The parchment finish and RWRP configuration integrate seamlessly into classic Strat rigs, delivering authentic single-coil voice with modern noise rejection for reliable gigging performance.

Tone & Electronics

Running 8.6k ohms of DC resistance with hand-ground Alnico V magnets, the STK-S4m produces a vintage output level that sits naturally between bright treble and warm midrange—the voice you want for blues, classic rock, and traditional Strat tones that cut through a live mix. Wax potting eliminates microphonic squeal while preserving the articulation that defines great middle-position tone across a stage.

Design & Build

Constructed entirely in Santa Barbara from premium materials, this pickup features a 3-conductor shielded lead wire for splittable operation and traditional Strat mount compatibility. The RWRP (Reverse-Wound, Reverse Polarity) configuration pairs perfectly with standard-wound neck and bridge positions, canceling hum when blending pickup positions while maintaining individual pickup integrity—critical for the responsiveness live players demand.
