JB/59 combo in basswood Jem

[Voxshall]

Anyone try this combo??? I don't know what kind of pickups I have in my Jem but they sound HIFI and hot.

I have/had that combo in two of my Warmoth Floyd strats. On an Alder body it flat out rocks, in Swamp Ash the JB was way to bright and was replaced with a TZ. I suspect in Basswood it would sound similar to Alder so I'd say go for it. The 59 is pretty much excellent in anything Ive tried. Very flavorful and understated.

Thanks I have the JB/59 in my Les Paul and I really love them they are really old ones and I've put them in my main guitar for over ten years LOL. Epi les paul then studio les paul then les paul standard.

But I'm thinking of getting some PAF copy for the Les Paul and trying the old favourites in my Jem.
