Seymour Duncan Joe Bonamassa The Blonde Dot Humbucker Pickup Set

Seymour Duncan measured and recorded the original pickups to faithfully recreate them as "The Blonde Dot" 1960 ES-335 Humbucker Set. Joe describes the neck pickup as "stratty and clear" and the bridge pickup as "punchy and dark", making a balanced set that he knew would sound good in any guitar.

To capture these tones, this vintage set uses an Alnico 2 magnet in the neck, whereas a stronger Alnico 4 magnet was found to best deliver the qualities of the original bridge pickup. To match the like-new original Blonde Dot, the nickel covers are unaged and come with black pickup rings.
