I've seen Seymour Duncan acronyms like PG for Pearly Gates, BS for Blues Saraceno, DD for Duncan Distortion but what the hell does JB mean?

Seymour built Jeff a Telecaster with 2 humbuckers(it is called the Tele-Gib)...these were BTW the first jb and the first jazz...this guitar was used heavily on Blow by Blow (the LP on the cover actually saw little use on that record), "cause we've ended as lovers" is 100% that guitar...Jeff still has the guitar and uses it all the time, and in fact in Jeff's own words he has not recorded with a Les Paul since he got that guitar.

The famous Tele-Gib. That's the original Jeff Beck model (aka "the JB") in the bridge.

thats also the original Jazz inthe neck...at the Time Seymour was calling it the JM...JM stood for John Milner, he is a chacter from American Graffiti. After a short while it became the Jazz! Those 2 pups were re-wound by Seymour himself...they came out of a smashed Flying V that had belong to Lonnie Mack!
