Which Seymour Duncan pickup should I buy for my guitar?

Choose the Seymour Duncan pickup that matches your guitar’s pickup format, string count and wiring. These options cover a seven-string humbucker set, a Firebird neck mini humbucker and a ‘59 Model neck pickup, so they aren’t interchangeable choices.
Start with fit rather than the brand name alone. Check your guitar’s pickup cavity, mounting arrangement and wiring before ordering; a pickup swap is much simpler when those details line up.
