The Legendary SH-4 JB and SH-2n Jazz Model Humbucker Set by Seymour Duncan
In 1974, the iconic Seymour Duncan Hot Rodded Humbucker 6-String Guitar Pickup Set, Black was created, a combination that has since become his favorite set of pickups. The SH-4 JB for the bridge and SH-2n Jazz Model for the neck are a timeless duo that can add versatility to any humbucker equipped guitar.

The SH-4 JB humbucker is the most popular pickup of all time and it's easy to see why. It features hot coils and an alnico 5 bar magnet that deliver a distinctive upper midrange attack, tight low end, and harmonically rich highs. The JB is an ideal bridge pickup for genres ranging from blues and country to hard rock and metal.

On the other hand, the Jazz Model neck humbucker boasts a special coil wind and alnico 5 bar magnet that creates an articulate, glassy treble response. Its balanced full and tight low end response is complemented by a scooped midrange that gives it a unique tonal character. Originally designed to match the JB Model bridge pickup, the Jazz Model is highly versatile and has been used by renowned guitarists such as Randy Rhoads, Jeff Beck and of course, Seymour W Duncan himself.

Each humbucker is hand built in Santa Barbara, CA and comes with an alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and vacuum wax potting for squeal-free performance.
