Seymour Duncan APS-2 Alnico II Pro Flat Stratocaster Singlecoil Pickup Set

The Alnico 2 Pro Flat delivers all the sweet bell tone of our staggered pole model but has flat alnico 2 rod magnets that provide a more even string balance for modern guitars with a larger neck radius, and players using lighter gauge strings. The flat poles also give this pickup a little less edge for an even smoother overall tone.

Aside from the flat pole pieces, we use all of the same materials to build these as we do our vintage Fender style single coil pickups. We start by assembling the bobbins with the proper colour and thickness of Forbon flatwork, and we hand file the flatwork, assemble, and lacquer our bobbins just as it was done during Fenders Golden Age. This pickup comes complete with waxed and tinned cloth pushback hook-up wires and traditional keyed bottom plate. Like all of our pickups, it's then potted in our wax formulation for squeal free performance.
