Welcome to the SD Forum, Javier!

The SH-4 & TB-4 will give you the same sound. ...TB = Trembucker - A humbucking pickup designed with wider pole-to-pole spacing in order to accommodate guitars with vibrato systems or wider string spacing.

Yes, I think 'jbj' is for the 'jb jr'.

yes..agree with russ.

for example if you have floyd rose or similar:
then you need TB-4

JBJ sticker on the back of the pickup is just a JB wound by a person with the initial J, most likely Maricela Juarez (“MJ”) who is now the custom shop manager. I think Marty just didn't know what the Duncan sticker codes mean and called it a JBJ since that's what the sticker said.

..I thought about that, but I saw that the JB Jr had SJBJ1N(neck & mid) & SJBJ1B(bridge) for lables.

JBJr. on that. Check out the Duncan home page, they show all the old codes and the new ones (they recently switched them). Humbuckers are all I've any experience with. But Marty mostly played a Jackson Kelly so I think we're talking about humbuckers.

Funny, everytime I read your username my mind plays tricks on me and I see Stings Lover instead of Strings Lover

That bass of Sting's, looks pretty road worn. Hmmmm there are alot of lonely nights out on the road, not that I'd ever speculate.
