Made-to-measure for rude, down-home Texas barroom boogie, Seymour Duncan’s Retrospec’d Antiquity Texas Hot Strat pickups deliver the chime, sparkle, and feel you’d expect from a vintage Stratocaster single-coil, but with a non-aged look that’s tailor-made for modern instruments. The hot-wound bridge and middle pickups cut through a hard-working band with unprecedented ease, while the neck pickup’s degaussed Alnico II rod magnets yield a smoky high-end response that’s completely devoid of brittleness. Beyond that, the RW/RP middle pickup yields a glorious hum-free cluck in positions 2 and 4, while custom-aged magnets create less string pull for enhanced sustain. Seymour Duncan’s Retrospec’d Antiquity Texas Hot Strat pickups include vintage-correct cloth pushback lead wire, and has been lacquered and wax potted for squeal-free performance. |
