Frequently asked questions

Can I use both pickups together as a set?

Yes. The SJAG-3N features reverse-wound/reverse-polarity (RW/RP) configuration specifically designed to create a humbucking effect when paired with a standard-polarity bridge pickup like the SJAG-3B, reducing hum and noise.

Which pickup should I choose for blues?

The SJAG-3B bridge pickup is explicitly recommended for blues and features a full frequency response with extra sustain and drive. The SJAG-3N is not ideal for traditional blues due to its aggressive, presence-focused character.

What is the output difference between these pickups?

The SJAG-3B is described as having higher output than both the Vintage and Hot Seymour Duncan Jaguar models. The SJAG-3N has a DC resistance of 11.74 kΩ and is high-output but specifically optimized for aggressive midrange rather than full-spectrum drive.

Are these pickups covered or uncovered?

Both pickups are uncovered single-coil designs that sit exposed on the instrument, maintaining the classic Jaguar aesthetic while allowing full visibility of the construction.
