Seymour Duncan SVR-1b Vintage Rails for Strat White Pickup

The Seymour Duncan SVR-1b delivers authentic single-coil character from a split-rail, twin-coil design that sits flush in your existing Strat bridge pickup route. This hand-built pickup bridges the gap between modern convenience and vintage tone, offering the squealing-free reliability of wax potting without sacrificing the clarity and snap that define great Fender-style lead work.

Tone & Magnetic Character

A ceramic bar magnet paired with a resonant peak at 7.8 kHz produces articulate highs and defined mids, while the EQ curve of 6/3/9 (bass/mid/treble) maintains the open, woody character expected from a vintage-voiced bridge pickup. The 2.67 kΩ DC resistance when wired in parallel ensures responsive attack and natural breakup when pushed through a tube amp.

Design & Wiring Flexibility

The 4-conductor lead wire allows you to switch between parallel (vintage) and series wiring via a push/pull pot or mini-toggle, giving you tonal range without rewiring. Hand-built in Santa Barbara, CA and wax potted for squeal-free operation, this pickup installs directly into any single-coil route with zero modification.
