Members pureanalog Posted April 22, 2005 Members Share Posted April 22, 2005 What is a good match for a JB SH-4 for a les paul in the neck position? Candidates are the Alnico Pro II Jazz '59 I want clear cleans and fat leads. The latter is the most important for me. I want long sustain and a great lead tone like. I like to squeeze out the juice out of notes so this is why i need such a sound. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Brian May Posted April 22, 2005 Members Share Posted April 22, 2005 You've answered your own question well. Any of those will do great! Pearly gates would be anothe great option- good sparkle and clarity.....but then you get that witht the Jazz but less output!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members batotman Posted April 22, 2005 Members Share Posted April 22, 2005 I've got a 59 in the neck of my tokai love rock. GREAT cleans and distorted rhythms! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kirs Posted April 22, 2005 Members Share Posted April 22, 2005 Jazz or '59 like everyone else said. Jazz is a little brighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pureanalog Posted April 24, 2005 Author Members Share Posted April 24, 2005 Jazz sounded the nicest to me. So I ordered a JB and a Jazz. They will be here next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AtomHeartMother Posted April 24, 2005 Members Share Posted April 24, 2005 I have a 59 in the bridge of my SG. I'm surprised at how dark and low output it is. The 57 Classic in the neck is brighter than it and hotter. I guess it's time to play with pole pieces. The 59 sounds fantastic though. I'm almost contemplating taking out the 57 Classic and sticking a 59 in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good choice. I made the same decision a few weeks back. My guitar had the Korean Jazz/JB HB102 set so I swapped them for the real deal. Sounds great. I was afraid a '59 would be a little too dark but in some ways I wish I had tried it out just to see how it would sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
