Born from Seymour Duncan's creative vision in 1974 England, this legendary humbucker pairing has stood the test of time as one of the most beloved pickup combinations in guitar history. The SH-4 JB bridge pickup and SH-2n Jazz Model neck pickup work together to create an incredibly versatile foundation that suits virtually any musical style, from blues and country through to hard rock and metal.
The JB Model holds the distinction of being Seymour Duncan's most popular pickup ever created, bringing exceptional juice and flexibility to any humbucker-equipped guitar's bridge position. Its hot coils and alnico 5 bar magnet produce that unmistakable upper midrange attack, combined with tight, articulate bass response and harmonically rich treble frequencies that truly sing. This pickup has become the go-to choice for players seeking that perfect balance of power and clarity.
Complementing the JB perfectly, the Jazz Model neck humbucker features its own alnico 5 bar magnet with specially wound coils that create an articulate, glassy treble response. The pickup's scooped midrange profile gives it a distinctively smooth tonal character, while maintaining full yet controlled low-end response. Originally designed as the ideal partner for the JB Model, the Jazz has earned its place in the hands of legendary players including Randy Rhoads, Jeff Beck, and Seymour W Duncan himself.
Hand-crafted in Seymour Duncan's Santa Barbara factory, both pickups feature premium construction with alnico 5 bar magnets, nickel silver bottom plates, and 4-conductor lead wire for maximum wiring flexibility. Each pickup is vacuum wax potted to ensure squeal-free performance, making this classic combination a reliable choice for both studio and stage applications.
