Seymour Duncan Custom Shop "SSL-1C DG" hand
scatter-wound pickup. In 1979 Seymour
Duncan custom wound this pickup for David
Gilmour to install in his black Strat® because he
required a hotter bridge pickup, one with more
output, sustain and richer harmonics. We've
contracted Seymour Duncan's Custom Shop to
manufacture for us these same pickups, and they are
exclusively offered here.
This version of the SSL-1C DG pickup is what we
call our "Original" since it is like David's
original and does not offer any pickup selection
positions of hum cancelling like our
Rw/Rp version of
this same pickup.
Each of these pickups is hand scatter-wound and
signed by "MJ" (Maricela Juarez) of Seymour Duncan's custom
shop. They have vintage staggered, beveled
Alnico V pole pieces, cloth insulated 22 gauge
hook-up leads, keyed bottom flat work stamped
with "SSL-1C DG". Coil windings are wrapped with
cloth tape.
Includes a white pickup cover,
nickel plated Phillips round head mounting screws
and two rubber surgical tubing
pieces.
Important:
As we are having this specific pickup custom
manufactured it is intended to be installed with
the Fender® Custom Shop Custom '69 (middle) and
Fat '50 (neck) pickups and all 3 of these
pickups black ground wires are to be soldered
together on the case of the volume potentiometer
and all 3 of these pickups white wires are to be
soldered to the 5-way selector switch. There is
no need to reverse the leads of any of the above
mentioned pickups to correct for phasing.

Shop SSL-1C DG pickups,

With
this specific SSL-1C DG design, this pickup
is intended to be installed with two Fender® Custom Shop pickups (Fat 50 in the neck, Custom '69
in the middle) where all 3 pickups are clock-wise wound
and South up on the pole pieces and you DO NOT need to reverse any of
the hook-up leads of any of these pickups to have them in phase
with one another. All pickups should have
their black wires connected to ground and the
white wires to the selector switch.
If you are installing different pickups in the
neck and middle, please reference the winding
direction of the other pickups and the polarity
orientation of the
pole pieces in relation to one another and hook
up accordingly to ensure correct phasing. One
needs to
understand winding direction of the
coil and the polarity orientation of the pole pieces to
correctly install with other pickups.
