TB-4 JB Model Trembucker Bridge
Summary
Trembucker
spaced version of the legendary JB Model that has been the ultimate hot
rodded humbucker for nearly four decades. A truly modern classic.
Description
This
is the Trembucker (F-spaced) version of the JB Model humbucker.
Designed in the early 70s, the JB Model humbucker adds juice to the
bridge position of any humbucker equipped instrument. With its hot
coils, and alnico 5 bar magnet, this pickup delivers an unmistakable
upper midrange attack, a tight, articulate low end, and harmonically
rich highs that can really sing. The JB is the perfect bridge pickup for
anything from blues & country to the meanest hard rock & metal.
Pair with the Jazz neck model for the ultimate Hot Rodded humbucker
set.Trembuckers have wider pole piece spacing, perfect for symmetrical
positioning under the strings of guitars with a tremolo or wide spaced
hard tail bridge (2 or wider from the center of the Low E to High E
directly over the bridge pickup). Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA
factory, the JB Trembucker uses an alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver
bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is
vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.

SH-1n 59 (4 conductor) Neck
Summary
A vintage-voiced, extremely versatile neck pickup that pairs well with most bridge humbuckers.
Description
The
’59 Model neck pickup is one of our most popular pickups because
it’s so versatile. It’s designed in the spirit of the original
P.A.F. humbuckers of the 1950s, with sweet sustain, full-sounding
chords, clear and bright attack, but we’ve made a few refinements to
slightly modernize the design and make it more adaptable to different
styles.
The ’59 has a full low end which is great for adding
character to your clean sounds and sustain to your leads. The high end
is slightly boosted for improved pick-attack clarity and the mids are a
little scooped for an open, smooth sound that’s great for preserving
the clarity of the individual notes in a chord. Play softly and the mids
and highs seem to fade back, but pick hard and the note will be
confident and clear. There isn’t a genre that the ’59 can’t work
within. It pairs nicely with a high output bridge humbucker like the JB
or Custom but is equally at home with more moderate pickups like the
’59 bridge. And it’s a popular choice for those with
humbucker-routed Telecasters as well. And if you order a four-conductor
version for coil splitting, its single coil mode is crystal clear.
The
’59 Model neck pickup is wound on Seymour’s Leesona 102 pickup
winding machine, the very one that was used in the Gibson factory in
Kalamazoo, MI in the 1950s. It comes standard with a long-legged nickel
silver bottom plate, vintage single conductor braided push back lead
wire and no logo.
