Hot Rodded Humbucker Set for Electric Guitar - Perfect for Blues, Rock, Country, and Metal

In 1974, while in England, Seymour Duncan created the classic humbucker combination that remains his favorite set of pickups to this day: the SH-4 JB for the bridge and the SH-2n Jazz Model for the neck. This versatile pair of humbuckers has become one of the most popular and timeless sets ever built. The JB Model humbucker, in particular, is renowned for its versatility and has become our best-selling pickup of all time. Its hot coils and alnico 5 bar magnet produce a distinct upper midrange attack, a tight low end, and harmonically rich highs that sing beautifully.

The JB Model is the perfect bridge pickup for a wide range of genres, from blues and country to hard rock and metal. On the other hand, the Jazz Model neck humbucker boasts an articulate, glassy treble response and a full, tight low end, with a smooth, scooped midrange that gives it a unique tonal character. Originally designed as a matching neck pickup for the JB Model, the Jazz is incredibly versatile and suitable for almost any style of music. It has been used by legendary players such as Randy Rhoads, Jeff Beck, and Seymour W Duncan himself.

Hand-built in our Santa Barbara, CA, factory, these humbuckers feature an alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and are vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance. The JB and Jazz Model set has become our best-selling humbucker set, favored for its exceptional versatility across different musical genres and playing styles. The unique tonal characteristics of these pickups, including their dynamic response and expressive lead playing capabilities, make them a favorite among players worldwide. Made in the USA, these humbuckers are crafted with precision and attention to detail, ensuring top-notch performance for any guitar they are installed in.
