Seymour Duncan JB Model TB4 Black Bobbins

Description from Seymour Duncan website:

"The JB Model humbucker is our most popular pickup of all time. Blues, country, fusion, punk, hard rock, grunge, thrash; the JB has always sounded just right, even as new genres emerged around it. The low end is full and powerful, the highs are crisp and detailed and there’s an upper-midrange bump that adds crunch and chunk to heavy chords but translates to a singing, vocal-like quality when you play single notes or solos. Meanwhile the hot output pushes your amp just that little bit harder for more sustain and harmonics.

Use it with a 500k volume pot for great high-end cut, or try a 250k pot to sweeten and soften the tone for smoother styles. It pairs particularly well with the Jazz or ’59 neck pickups, and some players even like to use a JB in the neck position for an extra-fat solo tone.

Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the JB Model uses an Alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options like series, parallel and split coil, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance."

This is a pre-owned item and should be expected to have normal wear and scuff marks associated with normal playing conditions. This item has been tested and is in working condition. The item in the photo is what you will be receiving. That being said, this came new in a new guitar that I bought directly from the retailer. It was used in as much for initial inspection of the guitar and then it was removed to be replaced with something else.

It is not uncommon for Seymour Duncan bobbins to have hairline cracks between the poles and/or screws. The company has been acknowledging this for over 15 years as " "spider legs." They're gas lines that are part of the injection molding process and they're not structural." If you do not see any in the photos, I can check the specific item to confirm and/or send more photos of the item.

All listings are posted across multiple outlets including my social media channels. There is always the chance, not matter how small, it may sell there before this listing will be updated. Will sell first-come first-served and will try to accommodate as much as possible in that respect.
