The Seymour Duncan Antiquity Texas Hot Middle pickup delivers the authentic single–coil character of vintage Stratocaster middle position pickups, with emphasis on the hot–wound Texas style favoured in blues and classic rock. This white unaged pickup is designed for players seeking traditional Strat chime and sparkle without the aged cosmetics. Wound to 6.5k DC resistance, it sits between vintage output levels and hotter overwound territory, providing enough clarity for clean tones while driving an amp with authority when pushed.
Alnico 2 magnets provide the warm, balanced magnetic field associated with late–1950s Fender designs, contributing to smooth treble response and rich midrange. Cloth push–back wiring replicates period–correct construction methods used in original pre–CBS Stratocasters. The passive single–coil design requires no batteries or active electronics, maintaining direct signal path from string vibration to output. Designed and manufactured in the USA, this pickup combines hand–wound coil techniques with carefully selected components to recreate the tonal signature of highly sought–after vintage examples.
