Seymour Duncan Little '59 Strat Bridge Pickup - White (11205-22-W)

When the Stratocaster was introduced in 1954, Buddy Holly and Bill Haley were about as heavy as things got. Inexplicably, Leo Fender did not even connect the bridge pickup to the tone control. And players have been looking to "improve" the Strat bridge position ever since. The Seymour Duncan Little '59 injects some much-needed low-end response without over-emphasizing the midrange (which can make a pickup nasal or "honky"). The higher output and fuller response is great for driving pedals, and the 4-conductor wiring opens up a range of possibilities for wiring options (all available on the Duncan website). A popular option for years, the Seymour Duncan Little '59 is a shot of B-12 for your Strat.

In the words of Seymour Duncan:

A roadworthy set of our Little ‘59s take your guitar from gator country to big city back alleys and everywhere in between. The Little ‘59 neck pickup has a slightly stronger treble emphasis than a traditional P.A.F., with added articulation. It’s a single coil sized humbucker with a nice, balanced P.A.F.-like response for big, full chords, and fat, punchy solos.

The Little ‘59 bridge model is a single coil sized humbucker that will inject the sound of a Les Paul directly into your Stratocaster. Its medium output and scooped mids will really add depth to your bridge position. The 4-conductor lead wire gives you access to parallel and split wiring options for added versatility. This pickup is a drop-in for any standard single coil pickup route.

Hand built in Santa Barbara, CA, the Little ‘59 for Strat pickups come with ceramic magnets, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and are wax potted for squeal-free operation.

• Neck/Middle position models will have the same output, wind direction and magnetic polarity.
• All sets, except the Jimi Hendrix signature model, come with a Middle RWRP as the Middle Pickup.
• Middle RwRP position (reverse wind/reverse polarity) – choose this to have a pickup that will be hum-cancelling with one of our neck or bridge models.
