Unleash the raw power hiding within your Stratocaster with Quarter Pound pickups that pack more than double the output of traditional single-coils. These high-output beasts will give your guitar a fat, punchy tone whilst maintaining that essential top-end sparkle that cuts through any mix. Big, beefy chords ring out with authority, and single notes leap forward with an aggressive presence that standard pickups simply can’t match.
The secret lies in the individually hand-polished ¼” diameter alnico 5 magnets, which contribute to the pickup’s distinctive high-end sparkle and rich upper midrange harmonics. Each bobbin is meticulously hand-built and dipped in lacquer before being wound and wax potted to ensure completely squeal-free performance under high gain conditions.
Seymour Duncan’s modern ‘oval’ Forbon flatwork design means these Quarter Pound pickups will drop straight into any guitar routed for standard single-coils, making installation straightforward whilst providing that mean, growling tone that will turn heads at your next gig.
