Detail 01
Single-coil-sized humbucker
It is humbucking in design while fitting a standard single-coil pickup route.

Independent shopping perspective
The parchment SL59-1b Little ’59 is a bridge-position humbucker sized for a Stratocaster’s standard single-coil route. It brings Les Paul-style sound to that position with medium output and scooped mids, while its four-conductor lead opens parallel and split wiring choices. For a Strat with an SSS layout, it offers a route-compatible bridge-pickup change without requiring a larger pickup opening. The wiring options give the installation room for more than one configuration.
