Seymour Duncan Jazz Model™ SH-2N Neck Humbucker Pickup

Paired this with a JB on a Squier strat. Initially I tried messing around with push /pull and micro switches to get all the different configurations possible like split, out of phase, parallel wiring. To my ears these options don't actually sound any good. Maybe it was my soldering or simplifying the signal chain but It was only when I binned the switches and wired it in the standard full humbucker way , It really came to life. Clean ,it is smooth and warm and with some gain it wails and sings. I am very happy now. Paired with the JB I have an impressive arsenal of usable sounds. I don't like that "hot" humbucker sound and this is perfect for me.

Sounds amazing

The alnico 2 bar magnet in this pickup sweetens up the neck position on a les paul to get those jazz and blues tones

Amazing tone, both in clean and distortion. Lovely warm, smooth clean tones and fat, thick warm lead distortion tones. Really versatile!!

Sounds great

I bought this paired with a JB to replace a pretty awful stock Epiphone neck pickup, and I wish I'd have gone with the '59. I play with a fair amount of gain through an Orange Rockerverb 50, so its safe to say my style errs towards the heavier end of the spectrum. If you are like me and this is your play style and tone, go for the '59 in the neck. The Jazz sounds fantastic for exactly that, Jazz. In the neck position, it's thick, creamy and full sounding, just the quality you'd expect from a brand like Seymour Duncan, but unfortunately it barely gets any use from me now. It lacks the output to match the JB at mid-high gain levels, and when you switch over to the Jazz it sounds as though someone has sucked half the power from your amp. I'll admit it was my own fault and I should have picked the '59 pairing instead and perhaps done a little more research, but lessons learnt! Absolutely solid pickup, great at what it does. Just make sure its the right one for you!

The technician who installed this pick up said he had to add bridging wires , as the wires were too short to reach the volume & tone pots. Guitar is a PRS Custom SE 24 with Floyd Rose.

Tengo esta pastilla, con una Invader SH8 en el puente, y la combinación es hermosa, además añadí una configuración push/pull y le saco el doble de jugo a este juego, juntas se puede tocar desde Grunge/Rock/Metal hasta mismo Jazz con ligeros tintes de Drive. Te gusta la Bossa Nova? Está configuración mixta te va a gustar. De por sí la Jazz es perfecta por si sola.

定番のピックアップで他のギターにも付けておりますやや明るめですか トーンの調整でどうにでもなります。 艶っぽい明るさです。

It’s a great pickup for the neck position.

Perfetti

rien a dire, je l'ai posé sur une guitare type les paul, avec corps en acajou, le son est très chaud. très intéressant en clair / crunch, mais aussi en lead pour des solo quand on ne veut pas un son trop tranchant !
