The JB Model humbucker is Seymour Duncan’s most popular pickup of all time. Blues, country, fusion, punk, hard rock, grunge, thrash; the JB has always sounded just right, even as new genresemerged around it. The low end is full and powerful, the highs are crisp and detailedandtheres 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.Meanwhilethe 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 builtin Seymour Duncan’s Santa Barbara, CA factory, the JB Model uses an Alnico 5 bar magnet,nickel silverbottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring optionslikeseries, parallel andsplit coil, and is vacuumwax pottedfor squeal-free performance.
