Description
The lipstick tube pickup is one of the most iconic looks in guitar history, and Seymour Duncan’s Custom Bridge version keeps that vintage charm while dialing up the output for players who need a little more push. Wound to a higher-output spec than the standard lipstick design, it’s built specifically for the bridge slot, where you need extra clarity and attack to cut through without losing that signature chime.
Under the hood, Seymour sticks close to the original ’50s formula: Alnico 6 magnets paired with a custom winding that keeps the tone bright, glassy, and full of jangle. It’s the kind of pickup that thrives on rhythm work and cutting single-note lines alike, making it a natural fit for country twang, surf runs, rockabilly slap-back, blues bends, and classic rock riffing.
This bridge pickup is part of a complete lipstick trio for Strat-style guitars. The full set pairs the higher-output Custom Bridge with an RW/RP (reverse-wound, reverse-polarity) middle pickup for hum-cancelling in the in-between positions, plus a regular neck pickup to round out the voicing across all five switch positions.
