any response to the above statement other than "+1" is incorrect. having played four different models of duncans, i can say with confidence that anybody disagreeing just isn't doing it right. if you think the jb is too hot, switch to a '59. if it's not hot enough, get a screamin demon. i personally love the jb in my jag-stang. that guitar's got bite for days now.

1. It needs to sond kool.
2. NOT FUCKING SEYMOUR DUNCAN.
3. GFS is a maybe.
4. I don't need stupid amount of output. I'd much rather it sound good than be a loud crappy mid-range mess.

Seymour Duncan pickups are good. I recommend. You'll love them.

If Hot Rails aren't coil tappable , try another fine Duncan product.

Do it, but be careful it's sharp.

if your experience is limited to one model of pup, then you should at least consider a different model in your search since their tonal qualities range widely.

I have owned:

JB
Duncan Distortion
a couple Duncan designed doodads
Vintage for Jazzmaster <- this one brought the rock.

i'll agree that the duncan distotion and all "duncan designed" pups are of poor quality, but for different reasons. the screamin demon, though, is a bad ass. tone for days.

Hehe, I'm mostly just giving him shit because he hates Duncan's. But honestly I can't find any faults with either the JB or the JB Jr. I bought your JB Jr, Mr dots, and it make my Jaguar sound like a true RAWK guitar when switched in. I don't understand how they can say the do not bring it. They bite like a treble-y walrus in the bridge position.

eff yeah. if a jb can make the notoriously muddy jag-stang bite, then it's definitely on the right track.
