Seymour Duncan Antiquity Lap Steel - True Single Coil - Electric Guitar Pickup

This is a flat pole, single coil pickup that is very similar in certain respects to a Tele lead pickup. In fact, many players who didn’t like the stagger of the later Tele pickups pulled these out of lap steels and converted them into Tele lead pickups so they could get back to the old flat pole look and sound of the 53 Tele. As a result, there are a lot of valuable lap steels out there that are missing their pickup because it ended up in a Telecaster. The pickups have a rectangular vulcanized bottom plate, and mounted into the body of the instrument using two wood screws. Each bobbin is fabricated and specially hand-wound using vintage techniques. The bobbins are wrapped in waxed string for added coil protection, and the hookup wire is the classic cloth push-back wire. Handmade in Santa Barbara, California: Seymour Duncan takes pride in designing and crafting our products to create the most amazing sound possible. That starts with providing an environment that attracts and retains our great team of engineers, product designers and craftsmen, many of whom have been with the company for decades.
