Seymour Duncan STK-S2b Hot Stack for Strat White Pickup
The STK-S2b captures aggressive, high-output character in a single-coil-sized format, making it an ideal bridge pickup for recording and mixing applications where substantial gain and presence matter without compromising the classic Strat body’s acoustic resonance. This ceramic magnet stack design combines modern output with traditional single-coil form factor, bridging the gap between vintage aesthetics and contemporary tracking demands.
Design & Construction
Built on a two stacked coil architecture with blade construction instead of traditional rod magnets, this pickup achieves high output while maintaining clarity across the frequency spectrum. Wax potting minimizes microphonic feedback, ensuring tight, noise-free operation in recording and studio sessions where signal purity directly impacts mix results.
Tone & Recording Character
A DC resistance of 19.90 kΩ positions this bridge model in the hot pickup category, delivering strong midrange punch and articulate treble response that cuts through dense mixes. The 4-conductor shielded cable allows flexible wiring options and ensures signal integrity from pickup through your signal chain and into the interface.
