Seymour Duncan JB for SZ720?

[lttoler]

Has anyone tried this pickup for the bridge of this guitar? I have heard that the stock bridge pickup is based on the Duncan Distortion model. How much of a difference would it make if I put in a JB. I have one available that I've had for years but never used. I play in a cover band and play every thing from Sublime to Papa Roach. Thanks!

You're a bit confused, the stock pickups on the SZ720 are the Duncan/Ibanez, the distortion based model is the Seymour duncan/Ibanez, which is basically a real Duncan (like the Ibz/Dimarzio) and a totally different pickup than the lower end Duncan/Ibanez.

Oh ok I didn't know that, its just what someone told me. So would the JB be a better quality pickup than what's in it now?

The SD JB is a fabulous pickup! It really lets the guitar "breathe"!
It is very responsive to picking techniques and to volume and tone pot settings.

My 2nd favourite, being Evo 2 my #1 choice.
