Seymour Duncan Little ’78 Strat Set

Description

The Seymour Duncan Little ’78 Strat is the single-coil version of an experiment encouraged by Eddie Van Halen back in the ’70s. Sometime in 1978, Van Halen gave Seymour Duncan a P.A.F. to experiment with, along with instructions to rewind it with the intent to enhance the reproduction of artificial harmonics and hot wind a little for some extra juice. The resulting Little ’78 Strat from Seymour Duncan features a magnet and output combination that lends itself to a warm crunch with biting leads and overtone-laden tapped runs. While this was not Van Halens final destination, it offers players the opportunity to revisit a waypoint in the early days of his legendary pursuit of the ultimate tone.
