Describe the Live Wire Classic humbucker for me.

I'm looking for a moderately high output, quiet, but clean humbucker.
t'll be going in a full size jazzbox.
Spruce top.

Danke.

Watch this space - when I get my stuff sorted out for recording, I'm gonna try and post some clips of some active humbuckers, namely an EMG 89, EMG 60, Seymour Duncan Livewire Metal, Seymour Duncan Livewire Classic. I'll probably drop them into a squire strat though, which I guess is a little different to what you want to drop it in!

You could do worse than listen to the clips already recorded and available elsewhere on the Seymour Duncan website.

EMG makes a floating pickup for jazz guitars. It's designed to mount to the bottom of the neck in order to avoid interfearing with the vibration of the guitar's top.

Useful for a guitar that's not routed for humbuckers.....

A clean moderate output humbucker?

I'd just install a set of Seth Lover's and call it a day.

The Jazz is more along the lines of what I was looking for tonally.

It needs to be potted, too.
Forgot to mention that.
