A "Hot Stack" designed for more aggressive Strats
The STK-S2N belongs to Seymour Duncan's Hot Stack family: single-coil format pickups designed to deliver more power and stability than many traditional singles. Its stacked humbucker design aims to preserve the feel and dynamics of a Strat, while greatly reducing unwanted noise-a real advantage on stage and in the studio.
For whom and for which styles
Ideal if you're looking for a Strat pickup that is more "dense" and stronger in gain, the STK-S2N easily covers Country, Pop, Blues, Classic Rock up to Heavy Rock genres. It is perfect for guitarists who alternate between articulate clean tones and thick overdrives, and want better note sustain with a generous output level.
Split, wiring, and sonic behavior
With its 4-conductor wiring, this pickup can be wired as a humbucker (full mode) or split to achieve a finer and brighter response depending on your wiring and electronics. Its 13.2 kOhm resistance and 6.5 kHz peak reflect a powerful and precise voice, particularly effective for cutting through a mix, reinforcing riffs, and adding body to solos, while maintaining good string-to-string clarity.
