JB is the Tube screamer of pickups. You either hate it or are hopelessly in love with its sound. It really does come into its own when things get distorted.

Happy I came across this, excellent comparison, just ordered the Evos...many thanks

[@joecader]

Love my Washburn Idols but they come with SD pickups. I bought one with an Evolution in the neck and a Tone Zone in the bridge.😍😍😍😍 Its a classic ROCK MACHINE..

[@taftoc7288]

Evolution is so good, after so many years, i can't imagine myself playing another pickup

[@TheIronWord]

The grit from that JB is money!

[@jdw9260]

Thank you!

[@jacksoncrate]

brill thank you

The Evolution has better notes seperation and sounds more upfront to my ears. The JB isn't bad neither but my vote goes to Evolution though.

[@emounstron8585]

Excellent vídeo too!! One ask, what kind of guitar are you playing?

Both sounding nice. The DiMarzio was brighter throughout. I prefer the warmer sounds of Seymour. Chain saw setting is simply offensive regardless of how its achieved.

[@mikusguitarius]

JB is just too 'thuddy' for me and lacks harmonic sparkle. So the evolution takes it I reckon. That said, I put an Evo 2 in my Jem and its even nicer than Evolution.

[@bigchocolate8547]

Evolution on everything

[@TheZooropaBaby]

I kind of like JB with the gain because it has a bit more high end which probably works better in the mix but I can see why Steve Vai made Evolution that way, its smoother so probably works well with his lead-heavy style

[@Brad143]

Evo🤟

[@Ibanezguy2007]

wow the Jb is a LOT more flabby sounding and muddy sounding.

[@TMoody]

The evolution is more throater.... sounds better to my ears.
