A Modern Classic Born from the Custom Pickup Era

In the late 1970s, Seymour Duncan established himself as a reference for custom pickups. The '78 Model captures this "workshop" spirit: a humbucker designed from a P.A.F. rewind, aiming to enhance harmonic richness and add that extra bit of aggressiveness that makes the guitar stand out in the mix without harshness.

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

Designed for the bridge position, this pickup targets guitarists seeking a credible rock sound, from dynamic crunch to biting leads, while maintaining an organic response under the fingers. It excels in hard rock, articulate riffs, singing solos, and passages with natural or artificial harmonics.

Sound Character and Wiring Options

Thanks to its Alnico II magnet and dual coil design, the Seymour Duncan '78 Model delivers a thick yet clear tone, with mids that project and highs that bite just enough to highlight harmonics. Its 4-conductor wiring allows exploration of clearer tones in split mode, or tighter sounds in parallel, while retaining a powerful and expressive foundation for overdriven tones.
