To voice our Original '58 Jazzmaster® pickup we referenced the original pickups in Jason Lollars pre-production Jazzmaster®. The result is a pickup true to the unique and recognizable Jazzmaster® tone, but with a more percussive low end and clearer, more articulate midrange than modern stock Jazzmaster® pickups. Our bridge pickup is also hotter for better volume and tone balance between neck and bridge positions.
Avg. DC: Neck 8.4K, Bridge 8.8K Recommended Capacitor: 0.047µF Recommended Potentiometers: 250k or 1meg. 1meg pots are vintage correct and have a brighter tone but 250K works OK too. It is a matter of personal preference.
