Seymour Duncan Pickups - JB Model™ Bridge SH-4 Humbucker

I couldn't possibly count how many guitars I have had pass through my hands with a JB model pickup fitted to it. Either already equipped, or had to install to, a hugely popular high output humbucker.

What SD say:
"The JB Model humbucker is our 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 there’s 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 our 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. Available in standard humbucker and Trembucker spacing for 6-String, as well as passive mount 7-String options.."

Dimensions - Click here for sizing spec sheet
Recommended wiring - The JB model humbucker is generally seen paired with 500k pots, and 0.047uF (SD's recommendation) or 0.022uF tone capacitor values depending on personal preference or application. 

Inside the box you'll find the neck and bridge pickups, along with your mounting screws and springs for each, and a wiring guide which covers traditional as well as alternative wiring styles. 

These pickups are a direct replacement in terms of sizing and spec for a traditional uncovered, short leg humbucker pickup. They are 4 conductor wired as standard which means you could wire it with some alternative switching options comfortably such as coil split, phase reversal or series/parallel, making them very versatile. If by chance you aren't comfortable installing these pickups yourself, and are local to the Home of Tone, then I offer professional in-house installation. If you are installing them yourself, then I am of course here for any installation advise too.
