The marketing is aimed at Country players, but I think a lot of Rock guitarists will like these pickups as well.



Video from Seymour Duncan.

I'm looking for singles for an HSS Strat I'm building. If these can have covers with no logo I'm interested.

The pickup covers on single coils are usually not even directly connected to the pickups themselves, they usually just screw right on and off.

You can buy a set of Fender single coil pickup covers for like $10. They're very easy to change.
 
After 50 posts here you can have access to more areas like the classifieds. That was post number 50 and dealt with musical gear instead of some other nonsense.

Oh I know, I have a bag of them from all the Strats/partscasters over the years. But sometimes the polepieces don't line up.

I removed the logo from one of their humbuckers but just decided fuck this I'm just not buying Duncans anymore. Too many options. And I was a Duncan guy all thru the 80's/90s.

They apply the Duncan logo to the covers at the factory and they sell direct now. I'm sure you can order those without the logo.

I don't know what you're referring to. I need more coffee. Sorry for any error on my part.
 
Too dark on the top end and the extra mids are kinda boxy to me. Not a fan with those examples. For a hotter SC (granted, not noiseless) I’d go with Tex Mex. They sounded great in a 50’s roadworn Tele I had.

Yeah it’s very difficult to get real single coil tone out of anything else. I was also looking at the Fralin Split Coils for my HSS build. Still very interested in those, they are also noiseless.
