## Description

Review: Everything I hoped it would be. - I've bought a lot of pickups from 3rd parties who are cheaper but claim to sound the same and now I've made the comparison they sound similar but these are Iconic pickups for good reason. The JB is the sound you hear on the majority of rock music throughout the era's. Ironic that the JB stands for Jazzy Blues. Installed these in the bridge position of my Ibanez Iceman along with the 59 model in the neck. Expected to pay more for such a great sounding and branded pickup. Sounds awesome. Its clean and punchy when needed and rocks like your grandma on valium. Highly recommended.
Review: The best - The best humbucker there is. Got them in a few guitars

## Features

- Delivers a full, powerful bass response and an upper-mid bump that adds chunk to heavy chords while retaining a singing, vocal-like quality on single-note leads.
- The SH-4 JB Model has set the standard for hot-rodded tone for nearly 40 years—our best-selling bridge pickup for blues, country, fusion, punk, rock, grunge, and metal.
- Pushes your amp harder for extra sustain and harmonics—pair with a 500k volume pot for crisp cut or a 250k pot to sweeten and soften the tone.
- Hand-built in Santa Barbara with an Alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel-silver baseplate, and 4-conductor lead for series, parallel, and coil-split options.
- Vacuum-wax potted to eliminate microphonic feedback, delivering rock-solid clarity from pristine cleans to high-gain roar.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Instant tone improver!
*by R***E on 28 September 2012*

Like the title says! I got my guitar back from the guitar store yesterday and when I played it all I can say is wow! It is such a good sound. I totally recommend this if you are a lead guitarist. It has a really good tone to it. It is so much better than the garbage stock pickup my guitar had before! I got my floyd rose strat customized with this and I am so happy with it!
