Seymour Duncan TB-4 JB Model Trembucker
For nearly four decades, the legendary JB Model (TB-4) has been the ultimate in blues, country, fusion, punk, hard rock, grunge, and thrash. A truly modern classic.
The JB Model is Seymour Duncan's most popular pickup of all time and has always sounded just right for almost any genre. 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.
Hand-built in Duncan's 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.
