Here’s What Seymour Duncan Lipstick Tube Strat Pickup

The same materials, construction and tone as our Danelectro replacement but modified as a standard-sized Stratocaster pickup.

The Lipstick Tube for Strat uses the same materials and construction as our Danelectro replacement but is modified to be a drop-in for any standard sized Strat slot. What you get is a unique combination of Strat bounciness and Dano crispness. The tone is sharp and jangly and is great for all types of clean tone rhythm playing. Leads have a snarly breakup when overdriven and are full of gritty brilliance. The middle position pickup is reverse wound, reverse polarity, which will give you hum canceling operation when combined with the neck or bridge pickups in positions 2 and 4.

Hand built in Santa Barbara, CA, the Lipstick Tube uses an Alnico 5 bar magnet, and a classic looking Danelectro style Lipstick Tube cover that has been slightly reduced in size to fit a Strat slot. We have also modified the mounting bracket so that it mounts like any other Stratocaster pickup. Comes with 2-conductor shielded lead wire, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal free operation.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

S Style Electric Guitars

S style electric guitars are known for their comfortable contours, versatile tones, and expressive playability. Typically featuring a double-cutaway body and a vibrato bridge, they offer easy access to higher frets and a naturally balanced feel whether standing or seated. Their pickup configurations often favour clarity and articulation, making them well suited to clean sounds, edge-of-breakup tones, and expressive lead playing, while still handling heavier styles with the right setup. S style guitars are valued for their responsiveness to touch and dynamics, making them a popular choice for players who want an instrument that feels fluid, familiar, and adaptable across a wide range of music.
