Just Installed A SD Jazz and JB In My Friends Gibson Les Paul

[Jeffblue]

My friend has a 2000 Les Paul Standard and we just upgraded his guitar. These pickups sound amazing and his Les Paul will now cover more genres. Excellent tones.

You put a JB in a mahogany guitar and it did not burst into flames?

 

[Jeffblue]

Well, she is putting out some heat.

 

[Rex_Rocker]

What were the original pickups? Burstbucker Pros?

 

[Jeffblue]

They were Burstbuckers.

The Hot Rod set is a best selling set in the world for a reason.

Gotcha.

I love the JB, personally, not so much the Jazz. But the JB is a more vesatile pickup than what many people give it credit for.

m favorite Pickup set
I put those things in everything

I had a Jazz in the neck of one of the guitars I had sold or traded off. I usually use a 59 in the neck of my humbucker guitars. I now have to buy at least one Jazz to install in one of my guitars.

I have a Jazz in the neck of the Iceman I love it.

I've never got along well with the Jazz, instead I absolutely love the APH, its counterpart with A2

Same.

I may have to try an A2 Jazz

Just sounds like it would be something i would like

You mean an Alnico 2 Pro? Has a wide round midrange to it and attenuated bass and high treble IME. If it had more treble it would have been one of the best necks for me. But the Jazz as-is was one of my top two neck pickups for 5+ years (the other being a Seth).

The Alnico II Pro is my favorite pickup of all time.

The only thing I like better than a JB and Jazz . . . is a Jazz & Jazz. :beerchug:

 

[ehdwuld]

I do love the normal jazz

I think i may try the a2 in one just to see

I had a Jazz in the neck of my LP for many years. Never really loved the JB in my LP. I assume the Burstbuckers were aftermarket? A 2000 Standard should have come stock with 490R/498T. The Jazz was a significant improvement over the 490R in my '99 Studio. Looking back, I can't say the same about the JB (granted it's probably been two whole decades since I had a JB).

Nothing sounds cleaner than a Jazz neck
