Seymour DuncanSTK-T3 Vintage Lead Stack Pickup Black Bridge
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Bridge-position stacked pickup in a Tele bridge size. For Tele players who want the stock single-coil voice without the hum.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Keeping Tele bridge twang while killing 60-cycle hum
- Studio work where single-coil buzz ruins takes
- Players who want a stock-looking, stock-sounding upgrade
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone wanting a thicker, hotter humbucker voice
- Neck-position replacements
- Guitars with non-standard bridge plate cutouts
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Tele bridge footprint
Fits the standard bridge plate opening. No routing, no plate swap on a stock guitar.
Detail 03
Bridge position
Positioned where string movement is smallest, so it delivers the tight, cutting attack Teles are known for.
Detail 04
Vintage-lead voicing
Aimed at classic lead tones rather than modern high output. Pairs with an amp doing the heavy lifting.
Detail 05
Black finish
Reads dark under a chrome bridge plate; visually different from a stock exposed-pole vintage pickup.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Pickup only. Bridge plate, pots, wire, and hardware not included.
- 02Requires soldering into your control cavity, or a tech to do it.
- 03Measure your bridge plate opening against the standard Tele cutout first.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does it keep the Tele twang?
That's the design goal. The stacked format preserves single-coil clarity and bite rather than converting the bridge to a humbucker voice.
02How is this different from the Little '59?
The Little '59 is a humbucker that thickens the bridge tone. This one stays in single-coil territory and removes hum instead of changing the voice.
03Will it drop into a stock Tele bridge plate?
Yes, it's made to the standard Tele bridge pickup size. Verify your plate if the guitar has aftermarket or vintage-spec hardware.
04Is it hotter than a stock pickup?
It's voiced for vintage-style lead work, not modern high output. If you want more push, a hotter pickup or a humbucker would suit better.
