Seymour Duncan SSL52-1n - Five-Two Strat, Neck Pickup - White

The Five-Two classic Stratocaster pickup was originally designed for Nashville studio players who wanted to soften the treble attack on their high strings while retaining all of the articulate snap on the low strings. The solution was a mixture of Alnico V and Alnico II rod magnets that delivers the best of both worlds. The Alnico Vs under the low E, A, and D strings keep them sounding clear and crisp while the Alnico II rods under the G, B, and E strings provide a sweetened treble response. The custom-wound bridge pickup is slightly hotter - exactly what a bridge single-coil needs - and is calibrated for full-bodied sustain and a stronger attack. Add to it the Five-Two neck pickup and Five-Two custom RWRP middle pickup and the complete set produces glorious Strat tone with hum-free operation in positions 2 and 4. As with all vintage Fender-style single-coil pickups, Seymour Duncan starts with the right colour and thickness of forbon flatwork. Along with the period-correct magnet stagger, this pickup comes complete with waxed and tinned cloth push-back hook-up wires and traditional keyed bottom plate. Seymour Duncan hand file the flatwork, assemble, and lacquer the bobbin just as it was done during Fender’s Golden Age of classic Stratocaster pickups. Middle RwRP position (reverse wind/reverse polarity) – choose this to have a pickup that will be hum-cancelling with one of our neck or bridge models.
