Seymour Duncan JB Model Trembucker Pickups - Black
The JB Model humbucker is Seymour Duncans most popular pickup of all time. Blues, country, fusion, punk, hard rock, grunge, thrash; the JB has always sounded just right, even as new genres emerged around it. The low end is full and powerful, the highs are crisp and detailed and theres an upper-midrange bump that adds crunch and chunk to heavy chords but translates to a singing, vocal-like quality when you play single notes or solos. Meanwhile the hot output pushes your amp just that little bit harder for more sustain and harmonics.
Use it with a 500k volume pot for great high-end cut, or try a 250k pot to sweeten and soften the tone for smoother styles. It pairs particularly well with the Jazz or 59 neck pickups, and some players even like to use a JB in the neck position for an extra-fat solo tone.
Hand built in Santa Barbara, CA factory, the JB Model uses an Alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options like series, parallel and split coil, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.

This pickup is pretty high output and i love it! It sounds awesome distorted, and clean. From soft rock to thrash, it does it all! Brilliant highs, nice and crisp on clean and high gain, aggressive lows, and balanced mids. I will for sure get more SD pickups in the future!

I've had this in my main guitar for years, and it's the right blend of power and dynamic range for me. It's really rewarding to ride the guitar's volume knob and find all the different tones it can offer. I barely use my neck pickup anymore!
