Description
Seymour created this classic humbucker
combination while in England in
1974, and it remains his favorite set of pickups to this day an SH-4 JB
for the bridge and SH-2n Jazz Model for the neck. Together they
provide one of the most versatile humbucker ever built. The JB Model
humbucker is our most popular pickup of all time. It adds juice and
versatility to the bridge position of any humbucker equipped guitar.
With its hot coils, and alnico 5 bar magnet, this pickup delivers an
unmistakable upper midrange attack, a tight, articulate low end, and
harmonically rich highs that can really sing. The JB is the perfect
bridge pickup for anything from blues & country to the meanest hard
rock & metal. The Jazz Model neck humbucker uses an alnico 5 bar
magnet and a special coil wind for an articulate, glassy treble response
that balances very well with its full, but tight low end. The scooped
midrange gives this pickup a smooth tonal character all its own.
Originally designed as the matching neck pickup for the JB Model bridge
pickup, the Jazz is an incredibly versatile humbucker that will work for
almost any style of music. The Jazz Model is an excellent neck position
counterpart for almost any
of our moderate to high-output bridge humbuckers. The Jazz Model has
been used by many great players over the decades, from Randy Rhoads to
Jeff Beck to Seymour W Duncan. Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA,
factory, these humbuckers use an alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver
bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and are
vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.
