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.

Le son est un peu comme un micro simple (c'en est un) qui aurait pris des amphétamines. Il adore la saturation et sait vraiment bien trancher dans le mix pour des solos endiablés. Il est également très sensible au bouton de volume (si vous avez un potentiomètre digne de ce nom, type CTS etc...) et il est capable de très vite revenir sur du crunch (genre volume à 6/7) ou même du clean (genre volume à 3). Le son par contre n'est pas très typique d'une strat, il faut donc s'attendre à dénaturer un peu sa strat en l'installant. Il peut se monter à n'importe quelle position, il fait des merveilles en position chevalet (bridge). Je ne l'ai pas testé en micro manche mais je pense qu'il a un son bien trop épais pour cela (peut être avec un potard 500k du coup), sauf éventuellement pour des solos avec pas mal de distortion. C'est au passage le micro utilisé par Ritchie Blackmore....je vous aide un peu plus....Deep Purple ! Oui c'est ça, le son de smoke on the water, ce fameux riff pas trop saturé et ce joli solo bien bluesy à souhait viennent de ce micro. ## Frequently Bought Together - Seymour Duncan SSL-4 Quarter Pound Flat Pole Strat Pickup - Seymour Duncan SSL-7 Quarter Pound Staggered Middle (RWRP) Strat Single Coil Pickup - Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB Bridge Humbucker Pickup - Electric Guitar Pickup, Perfect for Blues, Country, Punk, Hard Rock, and Metal --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.my/products/284623890-ssl-4-quarter-pound-flat-single-ceramic-magnets-black-strat](https://www.desertcart.com.my/products/284623890-ssl-4-quarter-pound-flat-single-ceramic-magnets-black-strat) --- *Product available on Desertcart Malaysia* *Store origin: MY* *Last updated: 2026-07-21*
