A Seymour Duncan Pickup Designed for Today's Strat
Pickups with vintage specifications have the grain and brightness but can lack punch when pushing more saturated sounds. The Hot Chicken Strat Stack was created to meet this need: maintaining the identity of a Stratocaster (attack, snap, clarity) while providing a higher output level and cleaner behavior when gain increases.
For Which Guitarists and Playing Situations
This "neck" model is aimed at guitarists who want an expressive and dynamic pickup for fiery solos as well as well-grounded rhythm parts, without unwanted noise. It is especially suitable for modern country tones, muscular blues, incisive pop, and contemporary rock, when seeking a clean sound that remains clear and a drive that keeps definition.
Clarity, Power, and Silence: The Hot Chicken Recipe
Thanks to its stacked coil design, this pickup delivers an authentic Strat sound while eliminating the typical single-coil hum. The A5 Chamfered Rod magnets contribute to precise attack, a well-present high end, and a firm response, useful for maintaining bite on low strings and sharpness on highs. Note: models intended for the neck/middle positions share the same output, winding direction, and magnetic polarity, which facilitates level balancing between these positions depending on your setup.
