Seymour DuncanQuarter Pound Flat SSL-4 Pickup for Strat

Adds a great lead sound. Not too noisy and easy to install.

I have this pickup installed in my custom superstrat build for 6 years now and it's really good! I'm not a huge fan of single coil pickups,but this one has so much versatility,for the price it cannot be beaten!

Sounds great, good price and pairs with the other two SDs that I have - another quarter pounder and a JB

I love Seymour Duncan pickups. I have them in my strat and they are fantastic. But this beast is something else. I bought a cheapo lap steel guitar to upgrade as a project. I wanted a single coil pickup, but one that was "hot". Then I came across the quarter pounder. I must say, its an incredible pickup, especially when you consider its form factor. It plays really smooth clean, but can turn into a snarling, growling beast,with loads of sustain. The most impressive thing for me, is that it has several voices, depending on how much volume your guitar is kicking out, not just full, middle and nearly off. It also reacts very well to the tone pot. All in all, if I was to recommend a pickup for a single pickup guitar, it would be this. Seymour knows his stuff.

Wasn't happy with this at first. I had to wrap some electrical tape around the coil to make it fit into my scratch plate. I was getting a very muddy sound and couldn't figure it out because I had no phasing issues. In the end, I switched the wires anyway, and soldered the black ground wire to the selector switch and the coloured to ground. (known as switching polarity). Once I'd also played around with the height of the pickup, combined with the height of the Wilkinson pickup in the middle, it now sounds terrific and I can see where the other reviews are coming from.This pickup needs to be quite close to the pressed down strings to function properly, in my opinion anyway. Obviously sound/tone is down to the player, but maybe if someone else has any issues, I hope my experience might help them if, like me, they are initially disappointed.I've gone from 2 stars to 4, and that's only due to the fitting issue.

Using it in the neck position very clear full sound that doesn’t get muddy with mild overdrive or full distortion like many other pickups do.I’m getting another one for my other guitar.Highly recommended

These pickups are beefy. No wonder they are called quarter pounders! Easy to install and great value for money. They have transformed my G3T into a powerhouse guitar.

Excellent pick up. Used as middle brilliant sound.
