Pickguard 2024 chargé signature Seymour Duncan Jimi Hendrix™ vaudou

In 1968 Jimi Hendrix played a Strat loaded with pickups hand-wound by Seymour. Fifty years later we are proud to share a piece of that history with you.

On March 28, 1968, Jimi Hendrix asked a young Seymour W. Duncan to walk his guitar up onstage at his show at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. That Strat was loaded with pickups Seymour had wound just for Jimi, and that unforgettable night would set in motion Seymours future - and his legacy almost five decades later. Now you can be a bit closer to Jimis world with our Jimi Hendrix™ Signature Loaded Stratocaster Pickguard.

The Jimi Hendrix Signature Loaded Pickguard houses those pickups in a pre-loaded 3-ply white pickguard and is available with either a standard-angle bridge pickup route or a Voodoo route (reverse-angle bridge route).

Like Jimis music, the Jimi Hendrix™ Signature Strat Set pickups have their roots in the traditional but with an eye on the future. Each is custom wound for a richer, melodic tone. The bridge model has an aggressive attack that cuts through while staying true to his iconic lead tone. The neck pickup sounds thick and full and is great for chord work, bluesy melodies, double-stops and Jimis signature hybrid chord/melody style. And in the in-between positions, theres plenty of that classic Strat ‘quack.

To help you to get even closer to Jimis earth-shattering tone 2024, each pickup is made with a reverse magnet stagger to capture the effect of playing a right-handed guitar upside-down and restrung for a lefty. The Jimi Hendrix Signature Loaded Pickguard comes packed with a little bit of history as well! Each box will come with a memorabilia booklet of Seymours experience with Jimi, as well as a Jimi Hendrix sticker from that era. The 3-ply white pickguard features 250K pots, a 5-way pickup selector switch and .047 caps. The pickup covers showcase Jimis signature. Please note that the Voodoo style will only fit guitars with either a swimming pool or humbucker route.
