Description
The SJB-3 is Seymour Duncan’s answer for bassists who love the growl of a true single-coil Jazz Bass pickup but want more muscle behind it. Built on the Hot Jazz Bass formula, it pushes output and attack even further, so slap, dig-in fingerstyle, and pick playing all cut through with authority. Blues, classic rock, garage, heavy rock, classic metal, and nu-metal players will find plenty to like here — it’s a pickup that rewards aggressive playing without losing note definition.
- True single-coil design for that unmistakable Jazz Bass snap and openness
- Quarter-inch pole pieces paired with intense coil windings for a full, sustaining response
- Logo cover included
This is a matched, calibrated neck and bridge set — the neck pickup is intentionally narrower than the bridge to fit correctly in a standard J-bass routing. Both coils are wound reverse-wound/reverse-polarity relative to each other, so when you blend neck and bridge together you get genuine hum cancellation, not just a volume boost. Want more shaping options down the line? This set plays especially well with Seymour Duncan’s STC-2 or STC-3 active tone circuits if you want to dial in the low end and presence beyond what passive controls allow.
Since fresh strings make a bigger difference than most players expect, this bundle throws in a set of Ernie Ball 2831 Power Slinky Bass Strings, giving you a complete, ready-to-install upgrade for your bass in one order.
