Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB Model Humbucker Pickup – Nickel

For nearly four decades the legendary JB Model SH-4 TB-4 has been the ultimate hot-rodded humbucker. A truly modern classic. More 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.
