SH-4 = SH-4 jb ?????

[Freeman]

I just bought a used 2003 PRS Tremonti SE that has a Seymour Duncan "SH -4" pu in the bridge position. On the SD website, I see a SH-4 jb described. On the back of my pu is the following product description "SH 4 0105" and "ICH74" Does this mean that I have a SH-4 that is differnent from a SH-4 jb" or is it the same?

I see that SD recommends either an SH-2n Jazz or a SH-1 59 for P.A.F tones for the neck position. I am considering the SH-2n for the neck. Do any of you have this combination on a PRS or simiar guitar, and, if so, how do you like them together. I am looking for a setup that can deliver sweet overdriven sounds and that also can growel a bit when I want it to. Recommendations?

Yes, the SH-4 is a JB. I've tried the Jazz/JB in a PRS and it sounds good together. The 59/JB sounds equally nice. I happen to prefer the Jazz myself.

Every SD PU has a name and a code.
The code for the Distortion is SH6 ,and the code for the JB is SH4.
The code for the Parallel axis distorion trembucker is PATB-2...etc....
