Frequently asked questions
Will either pickup fit my guitar?
The Antiquity 2 ADJ Mini-humbucker is designed for mini-humbucker cavities found in offset-body guitars like Jaguars and Jazzmasters. The Antiquity Jazz Model is a standard full-sized neck pickup for traditional single-cutaway or semi-hollow bodies. Verify your guitar's pickup type before ordering.
Which is better for jazz?
The Antiquity Jazz Model is purpose-built for jazz with hand-wound construction, 7.8K output, and vacuum potting that delivers natural compression and organic resonance. The Mini-humbucker works for jazz in offset bodies but prioritizes adjustability and clarity over that specific jazz character.
Can I adjust the output on both?
The Antiquity 2 ADJ Mini-humbucker features adjustable pole pieces with individual string-height screws for output balancing. The Antiquity Jazz Model has no user-adjustable poles—it's fixed for authentic vintage response and must be positioned correctly during installation.
Which is more versatile beyond jazz?
The Antiquity 2 ADJ Mini-humbucker handles blues, indie rock, and classic rock smoothly due to its lower output and clarity. The Jazz Model is optimized narrowly for jazz and studio sessions and will feel less lively in more aggressive genres.
