Seymour Duncan STK-S4n Stack Plus Strat Parchment Pickup

Seymour Duncan STK-S4n Stack Plus Strat Parchment Pickup

The STK-S4n Stack Plus delivers articulate, noise-free single-coil character in neck position without the hum that plagues traditional designs. This hand-wound Alnico V pickup combines vintage responsiveness with modern noise rejection, making it an ideal choice for players who want clarity and definition across clean and overdriven tones.

Design & Construction

Built by hand in Santa Barbara, California, this pickup features a sophisticated dual-coil stack architecture with a hum-attracting flux transfer plate and hum-neutralizing Helmholtz coil—engineering that eliminates AC noise while preserving single-coil articulation. The 3-conductor lead wire design provides splitting capability for extended tonal flexibility, and wax potting prevents microphonic squeal.

Tone & Performance

The hand-ground rod magnet design combined with Alnico V construction yields a balanced, responsive character suited to neck position work, where clarity and sustain matter most. This pickup excels at both clean articulation and driven tones, maintaining definition without sacrificing the natural compression players expect from quality neck pickups.
