For those of us who aren’t able to own a late ‘60s Stratocaster, installing a set of our Psychedelic Strat pickups will get you pretty close.
Using traditional materials and period accurate wind, these pickups have high highs, low lows, and a lot of space in between so that the mids have a scooped sound. This EQ profile will add depth and fullness to your tone.
DC Resistance: 5.9k, 5.85k, 5.95k
Application: Strat single coil route
We are passionate about quality so we ask for your patience while we craft your pickup. Depending on the nature of your order, it may take up to six weeks for delivery.

There are many ways of describing tone, and pick-ups, bold, raw, tight airy, and on. I will try and stay away from using these words, since all of them are subjective. What I cab say about the Psychedelic strat set is WOW. They truly are a work of sonic art. Maybe not for everyone but if you love the sound of the late 1960s early 70s this set nails it. I bought these after I installed the Hendrix set in a strat wondering how much better I could get another strat to sound, They made a great sounding strat sound phenomenal. The staff at Seymour Duncan answered all my question and were very helpful in my decision. This is the first Custom Pick up set I have bought from Seymour Duncan and will not be the last, worth the wait and the money. The quality and sound is worth every penny and then more. I was approached by a regular at a show I just did, and the question “ What did you do to make your guitar sound so great?” says it all.

Very nice bridge and middle. Neck is so dark, I brought the guitar back to the installer to check installation. Next time, i'd go for their less expensive set.

My Guitar Tech installed these in my right-handed Hendrix Strat - We ordered a left-handed set with the middle pickup RW/RP. The results . . .
They have creamy tone be it Slowhand Clapton, Jimi Hendirx Manic Depression vibe or even Terry Kath 25 or 6 to 4 and clean bell like tone when you turn down the volume . . . true sweetness or heavy classic rock tones!!!
