Product Description
*Please note that the product image is for illustrative purposes*
The Lollar sB Strat Neck Pickup in Matte Black / Nickel delivers a thicker, more vocal take on classic Strat tones while dropping straight into a standard single coil route. Based on one coil of Lollar’s acclaimed dB humbucker, it trades the usual glassy, scooped sound for a smoother, PAF inspired character with stronger sustain, a blooming attack and a focused lower midrange that still stays clear and articulate.
If you love the feel and ergonomics of a Strat but want more authority, punch and musicality from the neck position, the sB is designed for you. It offers a bigger, more powerful voice without losing the clarity and definition that make single coils so expressive, and its blade design ensures even string response no matter how hard you dig in or how extreme your bends get.
PAF Inspired Warmth in a Strat Format
The sB for Strat takes one side of Lollar’s dB humbucker and reshapes it to fit a traditional Strat pickup route. The result is a neck pickup with a vocal, lower midrange focused fundamental and a smoother top end that feels closer to a refined PAF than a typical bright, scooped Strat single coil. You get a more substantial, singing tone that flatters chords and single notes alike, ideal for blues, rock and modern worship styles where you want warmth and presence without harshness.
Stronger Sustain and Blooming Attack
By borrowing its DNA from a humbucker design, the sB delivers a more pronounced sustain and a distinctive bloom to the note’s attack. Notes swell and open up as they ring, making bends, vibrato and held chords feel more expressive under the fingers. This makes the neck position especially rewarding for lyrical lead lines and dynamic clean work where you want every nuance of your playing to come through.
Blade Coil Clarity and Consistency
Like Lollar’s other blade style single coils, the sB offers outstanding clarity and definition, but in a more convenient Strat sized package. The continuous blade polepiece ensures even output across all strings, so complex chords remain articulate and wide bends stay perfectly balanced. Even with its thicker, more powerful voice, the pickup retains the detail and separation you need for intricate rhythm parts and ambient textures.
Designed to Integrate with dB Humbuckers
The sB Strat range was created in response to players asking for blade style single coils that match the aesthetic, sound and power of Lollar’s full sized dB humbucker. This neck model can be paired with an sB middle and bridge for a cohesive three pickup set, or combined with a dB in the bridge for an SSH configuration that feels tonally unified across all positions. Whatever your layout, you get a balanced, musically voiced system that makes switching between sounds feel seamless.
Features
- PAF Inspired Neck Tone for Strat - Voiced with a vocal lower midrange and smoother highs, the sB Neck gives your Strat a more refined, PAF like character. This delivers a richer, less scooped sound that sits beautifully in a mix and flatters everything from clean chords to overdriven leads.
- Enhanced Sustain and Note Bloom - The design, derived from one coil of the dB humbucker, provides a stronger sustain and a blooming attack. Notes feel more three dimensional and expressive, helping your playing feel more connected and dynamic at any gain level.
- Blade Style Coil for Even String Response - A continuous blade polepiece ensures consistent output across all strings and positions. This gives you tight, defined lows and clear highs, even with aggressive bending or alternate tunings, while maintaining the clarity Lollar blade pickups are known for.
- Drop In Strat Replacement with Matched Electronics - Designed to fit a traditional Strat pickup route, the sB Neck installs as a straightforward replacement. Its recommended pairing with 500k pots and a 0.047 μF capacitor helps you easily dial in the intended balance of warmth, presence and clarity.
