Frequently asked questions
Which pickup has higher output and a more articulate character?
The Jazzmaster model has higher DC resistance (8.3K vs 6.5K ohms) and inductance (4.2H vs 3H), producing greater output, bell-like resonance, and superior note separation. The Jaguar model is more compressed and woody by design.
Can I swap these pickups between Jaguar and Jazzmaster guitars?
No. The Jaguar model is engineered for Jaguar cavity dimensions and fitment, while the Jazzmaster model is specifically voiced and sized for Jazzmaster instruments. Each is a direct drop-in replacement for its respective guitar only.
Which is better for jazz and fingerstyle playing?
The Jazzmaster model is better suited for jazz and fingerstyle, thanks to its higher Q factor (3.5), greater harmonic depth, controlled articulation, and height-adjustment feature for fine-tuning brightness and responsiveness to clean passages.
Are both pickups hum-canceling and wax-potted?
Yes, both are RWRP-wound for hum cancellation when paired with the corresponding Antiquity bridge model, and both are lacquered and wax-potted for microphonic control and durability.
