Seymour Duncan TB-4 JB Model Bridge Trembucker Pickup – White Price $99

The JB Model TB-4 Trembucker is one of Duncan’s — and the world’s — most popular pickups. It provides the classic sound of a hot-rodded humbucker that we’ve all loved for the last 30 years. Boasting plenty of output without sacrificing tone and adding the right amount of harmonics, sustain, and distortion, the JB Model TB-4 is great for anything from heavy blues to heavy metal — with an emphasis on heavy! But excelling at aggressive music isn’t all the TB-4 can do. It cleans up nicely and provides clear and distinct tones. And the TB-4’s F-spaced pole pieces make it ideal for trem-equipped guitars.

Hot-rodded humbucker tone

As the archetype hot-rodded humbucker for over 30 years, the JB Model TB-4 Trembucker is great for everything from heavy blues to heavy metal. It provides slammin’ output while retaining singing highs, aggressive harmonics, and just the right blend of sustain and distortion. It easily goes from sweet warm tones to raw rock ‘n’ roll. Compared to the SH-14 Custom 5, the JB has a stronger treble detail. The JB Model TB-4 comes with a 4-conductor hookup cable to facilitate complex pickup switching setups.

Creating a perfect pair

The JB Model TB-4 Trembucker is recommended for the bridge position of tremolo-equipped electric guitars. Because of its aggressive nature, it is often paired with a neck pickup like the SH-2n Jazz or an SH-1 ’59 for versatility. In fact, pairing it with the Jazz neck humbucker is Seymour Duncan’s personal favorite pairing. The TB-4 is ideal for balanced, warm instruments and works especially well with rosewood fingerboards.
