Seymour Duncan Antiquity Humbucker Neck

Seymour Duncan Antiquity Series

Seymour Duncan Antiquity Series pickups have the look, feel and classic sound of vintage pickups. Hand crafted in Seymour Duncan's Santa Barbara custom shop using the same materials and techniques as the originals that have become so iconic, these "new" pickups are as close to the real thing as it gets. Each pickup is delicately handled to replicate the unmistakable tone and look of truly worn pickups- something that couldn't be done with a mass production process.

Seymour Duncan Antiquity Humbucker Neck Pickups

I made this model to look and sound like a well-worn '50s humbucker as originally designed by Seth E. Lover. The pickups are built to traditional standards. Each has its own character and DC resistance, just like the originals. I wanted to give the player a pickup that looks like it's been played regularly for 40 years, so I aged the nickel silver cover and the poles. Included is a front-tapered mounting ring and the screws that go with it. The pickup is not wax potted, which retains the vintage sound and appearance. Crafted by hand in my "Antiquity" room, each pickup is signed on the magnet and bottom plate to guarantee you are getting an original Seymour W. Duncan Antiquity™.
