The Seymour Duncan STHR-1b Tele Hot Rails Bridge Electric Guitar Pickup is a single coil sized humbucker designed to be a drop-in replacement for the bridge pickup of any standard sized Telecaster. The best thing about this pickup is that while it is somewhat of a departure from a standard Telecaster tone it still retains a lot of the frequencies that make a Telecaster sound like a Telecaster.
Specifications:
- Position: Bridge
- Magnet Material: Ceramic
- Dimensions: 2.871 in. x 1.492 in. x 0.999 in.
- String Spacing: Not Stated
- Available Colors/Covers: Black
With the STHR-1b you can still get a “chimey” clean country tone, but you can also conjure up great metal and hard rock tones. It’s also a great lead pickup, as the STHR-1b is designed to have a really defined mid-range hump. Because the guitar is a mid-range focused instrument, this tonal profile makes it a snap to cut through a mix.
