Introducing the Seymour Duncan Antiquity Retrospec'd series pickups—an ode to the iconic Antiquity pickups, renowned for their vintage tone. What sets these apart is their brand-new appearance, perfect for those seeking the classic Seymour Duncan antiquity sound on a shiny, pristine guitar.

Antiquity Neck Humbucker


The Antiquity neck humbucker delivers an articulate yet mellow tone, boasting a balanced frequency response. Its soft, sweet treble attack combines with a warm, full low-end, thanks to a custom-aged alnico 2 bar magnet. The vintage output coils enhance harmonic richness, making chords clear and articulate, while single notes sing with a beautiful quality.

Antiquity Bridge Humbucker


For the bridge model, Seymour Duncan replicates the open, airy tone of the revered "P.A.F." humbuckers from 1955. With high notes that cut through without excess brightness and low notes exhibiting vintage warmth, the bridge humbucker is wound a bit hotter for better balance and added warmth.

Vintage Mojo, Unwaxed


Staying true to the original Gibson P.A.F., these humbuckers are not wax potted, pushing them to the edge of harmonic breakup. Wound on Seymour's original Leesona winding machine from the early Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, MI, these pickups capture the unmistakable vintage mojo.

The Antiquity Lineage


The Antiquity line traces back to the 1990s, a period when vintage guitar market enthusiasm soared. Guitarists, unable to acquire actual vintage guitars, began relicing their instruments. Seymour Duncan created the Antiquities to offer the aged look, tone, and response of 50s and 60s pickups. The Retrospec'd series caters to those desiring the revered Antiquity tone with a new, cosmetically non-aged appearance.

40 Years of Pickup Design Expertise


Seymour Duncan's meticulous attention to detail, backed by a 40-year archive of pickup design data, ensures that the Antiquity Retrospec'd series captures the authenticity and vintage accuracy that defines the Antiquity legacy. Join the ranks of guitarists worldwide who rely on these pickups for their unrivaled tone.
