Discover fuller Strat-style single-coil tone with the Seymour Duncan SSL-5 Custom Staggered for Strat, available at Irvine Art and Music. Designed for players who want more output, punch, and sustain from a traditional Strat pickup format, the SSL-5 delivers a stronger voice while keeping the clarity and snap that make single-coils so expressive.

Higher-Output Strat Character

The SSL-5 is voiced as a beefed-up Strat-style pickup with added power and midrange presence. It gives players more push than a vintage-output single-coil, making it a strong choice for blues, rock, classic rock, and lead tones that need extra body without moving to a humbucker.

Alnico 5 Clarity and Punch

An Alnico 5 magnet helps the SSL-5 deliver clear attack, tight response, and lively single-coil definition. The vintage staggered pole pieces support a familiar Strat-style string balance, while the hotter winding adds sustain and a bolder feel under the fingers.

Simple Strat Pickup Upgrade

Designed for standard Strat-style single-coil routing, this pickup is a practical upgrade for players who want a more muscular bridge, neck, or middle-position voice depending on their wiring setup. Wax potting helps reduce unwanted squeal, making it useful for higher-volume and higher-gain playing situations.
