"I have the ultimate respect for Whitesox fans. They were as miserable as the Cubs and Redsox fans ever were but always had the good decency to keep it to themselves. And when they finally won the World Series, they celebrated without annoying every other fan in the country."--Jim Caple, ESPN (Jan. 12, 2011)

Yeah - something with QR pickup connections, maybe rear loading....even if a Squire with a hacked back side.Originally posted by Bad City

If you want a Seymour JB because coolness, fine. If you want a JB because "MJ" fine. But I am now calling BS on THE ENTIRE WORLD!
If you send me one of each of these heralded epic JB's of awesomeness, I will put them each in a guitar, record them, put the clips up[, and let you vote in a BLIND listening and see if your dumb and deaf @$$ can REALLY choose the real 80's/Seymour/JB.
I'll get Duncan's own Mincer to come down and play-supervise etc. I'll film the freaking making of it and p[ublish the entire methodology. I'll take ultra care of your precious pups and return them to you on my own dime.
And I'll publish the actual findings. Which might show that 80% of people prefer the MJ. Or it might show that 33% like each. Or....it might show a slight preference for the current JB.
What is really awesome about this challenge, is I won't have to do it because NO ONE will take me up on it because you all know you are full of $h!t.
I've had current JB's.
Not enough difference I think I couldn't tell. Stick a roughcast in the new one and it's close enough.
But that's what forums are for. Debating minutiae that no one could here when the drummer kicks the down beat.Playing:
Thorn, PRS and Kauer Guitars
Marshall, Greer amps, Metroamp Home Builds
Duncan Favorites: SM3, 59's, Sat Night Specials....
Scumback Speakers, V Picks and various other sundries

There is something magical that happens when you take a roughcast A5 and then degauss it , it takes the ice pick top end off and gives it a more vintage vibe .Last edited by JB6464; 11-09-2020, 10:07 AM.

The Antiquity JB's have a aged degaussed magnet which you won't get with any regular production model .Last edited by JB6464; 11-27-2020, 01:51 PM.

No, I swapped in new mags to all of them. Must have been ur magna doodle. I presume the differences in the JBJ are from the wind and the age. While the Ant's differences must be from the wind and simulated aging.The things that you wanted
I bought them for you
