Eric Steckel has travelled the world with his guitar, sharing the stage with legends. His signature set, the Seymour Duncan CS-Candy, is the epitome of this quest: a sound that exudes authenticity, not raw power. If you're looking for that classic grain that makes every note sing, where the dynamics of your hand drive the sound, you've come to the right place.

Forget stratospheric output. Here, with values around 7.5k, the aim is pure musicality. The Alnico III magnet, less magnetic than its cousins, produces an open, airy timbre. The result? Round bass that doesn't dominate, soft midrange and highs that shine without ever scratching. It's the antidote to a compressed, aggressive timbre.

This set excels in a working context where expression is paramount. In the studio, it captures the slightest variation in your attack, making direct takes surprisingly lively. On stage for a blues-rock set, it lets you navigate from singing clean to the crackling saturation of a good tube overdrive simply with the volume control on your guitar. The sound breathes with you.

The construction follows this philosophy. The humbuckers are assembled with Seymour Duncan craftsmanship, ready to fit your Les Paul, SG or other standard pickup model. The 4-conductor wiring option is available if you want to explore coil combinations, but the real pleasure is in the simplicity of the original sound.
