Seymour Duncan YJM Yngwei Malmsteen Loaded Pickguard Off White

Seymour Duncan YJM Fury Loaded Pickguard – The Fury, Prewired and Ready

Channel the legendary tone and blistering speed of Yngwie Malmsteen with the Seymour Duncan YJM Fury Loaded Pickguard. This prewired assembly delivers precision, power, and unmatched responsiveness for Stratocaster players ready to bring The Fury.

Drop-In Convenience, Signature Performance

Designed for effortless installation, this pickguard features an 11-screw-hole USA pattern that drops seamlessly into most standard Stratocasters. Every component is hand-built and loaded into the pickguard in Seymour Duncan's Santa Barbara, California workshop, ensuring superior craftsmanship and quality control. The prewired setup includes a calibrated set of YJM Fury signature pickups and the high-speed no-lube YJM volume potentiometer—engineered to meet Yngwie's demands for speed and responsiveness with almost zero turning resistance.

Calibrated Pickups for Ultimate Balance

Every pickup in this set is carefully calibrated to work as a cohesive system, ensuring seamless transitions and balanced output across all five switch positions.

The bridge pickup is wound hotter to provide better balance with the neck and middle pickups. It handles Yngwie's chordal onslaught with a precise, articulate response that delivers just the right amount of high end without sounding harsh or brittle. Whether you're crafting soaring solos or driving rhythmic power, this pickup maintains tight lows and detailed highs, cutting through dense mixes with clarity and definition.

The neck and middle pickups are designed to bring out the balance of Yngwie's fluid left-hand technique with his broad mix of right-hand pick attack. They deliver a sweet, smooth tone with just the right amount of high end to make them extremely articulate and especially responsive to dynamics. These pickups highlight the fluidity of intricate fingerwork and sweeping runs while responding beautifully to shifts in pick attack.

Patented Noise-Canceling Technology

Back in the 1980s, Seymour Duncan patented a special bottom coil design that actually injects negative hum into the pickup circuit. At the end of the production process, each pickup is fine-tuned for maximum noise cancellation. You get all the great qualities of a classic Strat pickup—and none of the hum—with Seymour Duncan's legendary Stack design. The YJM Fury uses custom-length Alnico 5 rod magnets and a unique coil architecture to deliver that perfect balance of sweet fluidity and articulation that is Yngwie J. Malmsteen. Each pickup is wax potted for squeal-free performance, even under high-gain conditions.
