Got a pre-1983 fullsize JB (JBJ label on bottom) humbucker and I may or may not be building another guitar in the near future, so what's your take on a good match?
Doesn't have to be near the same output as the JB (I'd actually prefer slightly lower for clarity).
For starters, a Seth Lover neck (for example) would be too weak output IME.
Needs to be clear, but not clinical.
Going into an alder strat, maple/rosewood neck, probably one of those newfangled Floyd Rose 1000s, although I may go 6 hole Callaham.
Finally, needs to be left-handed.
ADDENDUM: needs to be Seymour Duncan. Because, duh.
