Product Description
The Seymour Duncan Antiquity II Surf for Strat would be equally comfortable in the smoky clubs of Chicago's West Side as hanging ten at the Malibu Pier. The Antiquity II Surfer is hailed by many members of the Seymour Duncan User Group Forum as the ultimate pickup for vintage Strat chime and quack. Whether you play Blues, West Side Soul, Surf, or Jangle Pop, the Surfer has the sweet highs and percussive lows to give you and your Strat a Free Ride on the Way Back Machine without sacrificing output or versatility.The Antiquity II Surf for Strat is designed for any position. A Custom Bridge version is available for those players needing more output from the bridge position; and an RW/RP (reverse wound/reverse polarity) version is available for the middle position.To some, this is craziness, intentionally creating an aged electrical component. But if you're like Seymour Duncan, and you appreciate the personal commitment and hand craftsmanship found in early electric guitars, then you'll want to capture that timeless beauty with an Antiquity pickup.

My Strat Tone Quest Is Complete With Antiquity II's
By Frank Keller
Had this installed yesterday for neck, the RW/RP for middle, & the Custom Bridge for bridge pup. It's hard to imagine being happier with a set of Strat pups. Each position is distinctive, expressively clear, & delightful to my ears. This is *the* Strat sound I've been looking for. I go for as much clean headroom as possible, & prefer distortion from a tube preamp & not a hot pup. They don't sound good with my digital effects processor (distortion) out of the box (may after adjusting EQ), but do sound great through my Duncan Twin Tube Classic tube preamp.I also highly recommend adding a $10 blender pot with these, which adds two more distinct tones (Tele middle & all 3 pups on) which you can variably blend. It also turns the only tone pot into a master for all 3 pups.

By Cliff Adams
I placed this pickup in the neck position, along with the reverse wound/reverse polarity SD Antiquity II Surf (in the middle position) and a Custon Bridge version of the same pickup, on a MIM Classic '50's Series Fender Stratocaster. These "Surf" pickups used together are a beautiful sounding set: full "quack" from the neck alone, deep humbucking with the neck and RW/RP middle, full tone from the middle, brighter humbucking from the RW/RP middle and custom bridge, and a penetrating shimmering chiming brightness from the custom bridge alone. Surf, killer blues, jazz, rockabilly... just about everything a Strat player would want -- except distorted overdrive; the vintage tone is not meant for heavy metal. This is the tone I wanted, at a louder output than the stock pickups.
