Description
Seymour Duncan JB Model Humbucker. The world's most popular humbucker! Provides slammin' output while
retaining singing highs, aggressive harmonics, and just the right blend
of sustain and distortion. Goes from sweet warm tones to raw rock 'n'
roll. Compared to the SH-14 Custom 5, the JB has a stronger treble
detail. Some players use it with 250K pots to smooth out the highs.
Comes with four-conductor hookup cable.
The “SH” Humbucker series is designed for the original/classic string spacing of Gibson humbuckers (1.95” (48.9mm) measured center of high string to center of low string over the bridge pickup.) If that space is greater than 2.00” (or 50.0mm), use a Trembucker (“TB”) in the bridge position. Available in black, white , zebra (cream & black), or reverse zebra (B, W, Z, or RZ) as well as the following colors at $3.00 upcharge—red, pink, green, light blue, dark blue & yellow. (custom colors other than black may delay shipment lead times)
