Seymour Duncan JB Jr. Tele Bridge Humbucker Pickup - Black Reviews
Who says Teles can't deliver hot-rodded humbucker tone? Drop a Seymour Duncan JB Jr. Tele into your axe's bridge position, and you'll be able to harness the classic, coveted sound that countless guitarists have pursued since the early days of metal. Best of all, since it's a drop-in replacement for most Tele-style instruments, you won't have to butcher your bridge rout to get it. At Sweetwater, we've found that this ceramic-loaded, single-coil-sized humbucker delivers full-sized tone, offering punchy lows, articulate highs, and searing upper mids — ideal for chunky power chords and singing leads — while its aggressive output drives your amplifier into a realm of rich, harmonic-laden grit and extended sustain. Moreover, the JB Jr. Tele boasts 4-conductor lead wire, giving you access to series, parallel, split-coil, and other advanced wiring configurations. Finally, its vacuum wax-potted design certifies a squeal-free playing experience. Handbuilt in Seymour Duncan's Santa Barbara, CA workshop, the JB Jr. Tele will breathe new life into your humble guitar, transforming it into a high-gain powerhouse without sacrificing its iconic look and feel.
Just like a JB
Wow! This sounds just like it's full humbucker-sized big brother. As soon as I installed it and got my guitar set up, it was that wonderful meaty punchy JB sound searing out of my tele. Couldn't ask for this pickup to do anything more.
JB's doing JB things
JB's are a tonally super consistent pick-up that sound like they were meant to be in whatever guitar you put them in and putting them in a Tele seems like something that should have happened a while ago.
That said, they are awesome in a tele.
Having 4 wires still lets you split the pick-up and have a single pick-up tele tone. Both tones are really, (expectedly) nice in a tele.
