I have a jb jr in the bridge one of my strats, and just crappy squire single coils middle/neck. Tempted to put another jbjr in the neck now. Very tempted. Amazing playing here too.
Dude you seriously are incredible I half way through forgot that I was supposed to be paying attention to the pick ups because your riffs were just out of this world awesome. But ya the tone sounds awesome I really like these. I’m buying a new squire classic 70s vibe jaguar which comes with two single coils and no room for a full humbucker without fully having to remove wood from the guitar and make a space witch I won’t do so I think I’m going to pick up one of these and a lil 59. I think it will be the perfect combo
Breakx22 Did you happen to do this yet? Because I have a jb jr in the bridge of my jag right now and it just isn’t working for me. I think they sound much better in strats than jags. I’m replacing it with a quarter pound (sjag-3b) since I already have the quarter pound neck (sjag-3n) and I might try dropping the jb jr in my strat bridge instead. Currently the strat has all Yosemite pups but the bridge is quite harsh so a jb jr might be the ticket. Cheers.
Very smooth transitional movements. Back to the pickups, I have a JB Seymour from the day, such a solid pickup for multiple disciplines and genres.. Sounds like the Jr is and has been carrying that on currently.. Thank you for the demo sir!
Sounds sick on both settings. Really love the sound of neck just what I'm looking for sounds like a strat neck pickup, but should have the output of a humbucker I assume. I put a Seymour Duncan I believe the Distortion Humbucker in my bridge, and now the volume loss switching to my single coils is way to much (I always expect Some but not that much, honestly I was originally thinking the JB to begin with, and maybe that would have paired better), hoping one of these in the neck, and maybe even a duckbucker in the middle Should solve my problem. The fender vintage noisless pickups I'll be taking out can go in my squire which has Duncan design single coils, not bad but since getting fender vintage noisless I've noticed I actually like more than just the neck and bridge position (bridge single coils have always been love hate for me certain styles it works fine with a tone knob available).
Truly some amazing playing. And the tone is the one I've always been searching for. I will instantly order 2 Jb Jr:s and be set for life. Thank you for uploading this video. Also, what pots did you use in this installment? 250 or 500k ?
Hi Veen. Nice tone & VERY nice playing. Btw, I'm after a hot & fat PAF humbucker sounding bridge pickup for my Strat. I need to go from Frampton & Van Halen to GnR & Whitesnake. Do you think the JB Jr would work well for all that? (Any insight you can share is very appreciated). Thanks Bud!
Awesome demo and playing ! ⭐ Is your neck JB Jr Is the same version than the JB Jr bridge ? Because i know there is an existing JB Jr neck version... Your answer would be so much appreciated. Thanks in advance.👍
You don’t find the neck model to be to dark and bass heavy? Upper mids and treble slice through pretty well? How about harmonics? You have it wired for parallel or split, too?
I have it wired for parallel. I don't find the lead sound too dark or bass heavy, it slices through very well. Clean I do sometimes think it might lacks a bit of clarity or treble. But not always, also depends on what kind of music I am playing.
Hi Mike! The clean tone of the neck-pickup is very warm. You can get a kind off jazzy tone from it. I really like it. Maybe if I can find the time I will make a video with this guitar using a clean tone!
Judi from how the lead sounded I'm sure it's nice and warm like the distorted tone was. It also didn't make it sound to much not like a strat either. That's been my only fear with whether I should switch out my neck single coil cause neck single coil has always been the best sound, but I think if you have a humbucker. In the bridge it almost forces you too, u less you play entire songs just on one pickup.
Came to check out the pickups, stayed for the sweet leads
That was so, so sweet. Great job brother, I bow in respect...
Thank you very much! Means a lot!
Excellent work veen, you get such a nice tone from that strat! Some cool licks too!!👌👌
Thanks a lot Anthony! Really appreciate it!
Nice playing and a fat buttery tone. Great job.
I have a jb jr in the bridge one of my strats, and just crappy squire single coils middle/neck. Tempted to put another jbjr in the neck now. Very tempted. Amazing playing here too.

Thanks man, I really appreciate that! And I think that indeed will be a good choice for pickups :)

Amazing playing, my friend! Truly inspiring!
Thank you!
That tone is gnarly !!!
Really nice tone!! I was thinking about a Lil'59 for the bridge, but the JB Jr. seems to be more versatile. Thanks for sharing!
Sounds really great!! Also nice guitar in the back 😉
Geweldig
You've got a really nice playing style.
wow . very nice playing.
Beautiful, great job man!
Love it! I should play more often to improve my skills
Very smooth transitional movements. Back to the pickups, I have a JB Seymour from the day, such a solid pickup for multiple disciplines and genres.. Sounds like the Jr is and has been carrying that on currently..
Thank you for the demo sir!
Sounds good and you play good.
Beautiful
I like the sound of that 59 in the neck Hope my tele sounds close to that. Your playing is pretty great though.
Thank you very much! The pickup in the neck is also a Jb Jr. though, not a 59.
@@Wouterrj that is exactly why I’m here 🙂👍 Great playing!
@@Wouterrj Oh my bad it sounds actually little better than a 59 my bad. Your a great improviser. Sounds good.
Very nice
Watching many times

Thanks a lot! I use 500k pots.
@@Wouterrj Thanks !
Amazjng
Excelent work! I have a question. I got the little 59 in the bridge of my strat, can I change it to the neck? and buy a JB jr for bridge?
Yes, it's preference. There's no right or wrong it's what sounds good to you.
Remain positive and vigilant!
Hi Veen. Nice tone & VERY nice playing. Btw, I'm after a hot & fat PAF humbucker sounding bridge pickup for my Strat. I need to go from Frampton & Van Halen to GnR & Whitesnake. Do you think the JB Jr would work well for all that? (Any insight you can share is very appreciated). Thanks Bud!
Hi T-Boog, thanks man! I do think you can get a GnR kinda sound with these pickups. Good luck with the choice!
@@Wouterrj Thanks Man & Cheers!
Great playing! Has anyone recorded electric with a mic close to the pick hand? Never thought about that before watching this video.
For bridge .. JB Jr or Hot rails .. for standard rock ?! (Specially driven and distorted tones)
Awesome demo and playing ! ⭐
Is your neck JB Jr Is the same version than the JB Jr bridge ?
Because i know there is an existing JB Jr neck version...
Your answer would be so much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.👍
Hi Richard, thank you very much! My neck pickup is the Jb Jr neck version, so not the same as the bridge.
Great !
Thank you sooo much !
It's so appreciated !
It sounds really great and I'm gonna get one for my strat.👍👍
You don’t find the neck model to be to dark and bass heavy? Upper mids and treble slice through pretty well?
How about harmonics?
You have it wired for parallel or split, too?
I have it wired for parallel. I don't find the lead sound too dark or bass heavy, it slices through very well. Clean I do sometimes think it might lacks a bit of clarity or treble. But not always, also depends on what kind of music I am playing.
So, jb jr or dimarzio dp218 for gnr/ acdc sound out of a strat?
Major Eric Johnson vibe here.
Nice!
Do they work good with the single coil in the middle?
Because I've been thinking of the same pick up set up
Yeah, I think they work well together for a clean sound!
Did you change the volume pot?
Yes, to 500K
Dif between this and lil 59?
How does the JB jr. Neck pickup sound using a clean tone?
Hi Mike! The clean tone of the neck-pickup is very warm. You can get a kind off jazzy tone from it. I really like it. Maybe if I can find the time I will make a video with this guitar using a clean tone!

help plzz , jb jr or lil 59 on neck?
It's preference, no right or wrong choice. It's what sounds good to you.
Remain positive and vigilant!
Did you keep your 2&4 positions? or no
