The Woody HC: the "hum-canceling" version designed for the stage
The Seymour Duncan Woody HC (HC for Hum-Canceling) carries forward the spirit of the "plug and play" soundhole pickup by adding a double-coil architecture. The result: a cleaner reproduction in electrically noisy environments, particularly appreciated during rehearsals, home studios, or on stage, when lighting and surrounding electronics can generate noise.
Who is this acoustic soundhole pickup for?
Designed for acoustic guitarists who want to amplify their instrument quickly, this pickup is especially suited for rhythm players and Folk musicians. Its balanced response helps maintain a clear accompaniment with a nice presence, while leaving room for vocals and other instruments, without requiring complex installation.
A discreet, fast, and effective magnetic pickup
The Woody HC mounts directly into the soundhole and amplifies your sound passively, without losing the essence of your playing. Its understated design visually fades away, while the double-coil effectively limits unwanted emissions and interference. It is compatible with most acoustic guitars thanks to an adapted soundhole diameter range, making it a reliable solution to switch from "living room" playing to amplified performance in an instant.
