Seymour Duncan SJB-3B Quarter Pound Jazz Bass Bridge Pickup (4-String) - Powerful tone with precision and sustain

The Seymour Duncan SJB-3B Quarter Pound is a single coil bridge pickup for 4-string jazz basses and was developed for bassists who appreciate the powerful output of hot-wound pickups but are looking for an even tighter, more direct tone response with a long sustain phase. With its distinctive 1/4-inch Alnico V polepieces and a greatly increased number of coils, the SJB-3B delivers a full, assertive tone - perfect for blues, classic rock, garage, heavy rock, classic metal and nu-metal.

The pickup produces a balanced blend of punchy attack, defined mids and powerful low-end without losing the dynamics or complexity of the signal. Whether fingerstyle, slap or with the pick - this pickup responds immediately and musically to any playing style.

Seymour Duncan - precision craftsmanship "Made in the USA"

Seymour Duncan is one of the most renowned manufacturers of high-quality pickups in the world. With decades of experience and uncompromising production in the USA, pickups are created that stand for longevity, attention to detail and expression. The SJB-3B Quarter Pound is a prime example of this quality - built for basses that need more punch, more expression and more musical depth.

The combination of hotter winding, solid magnetic poles and high-quality workmanship results in a pickup that cuts an excellent figure both as a replacement part and as a targeted upgrade - especially for modern playing styles with high assertiveness.

Technical details of the Seymour Duncan SJB-3B Quarter Pound pickup

Inside the SJB-3B, large 1/4" Alnico V magnets work in conjunction with a hotter coil winding to provide a powerful yet controlled output level. With a DC resistance of 13 kOhm, the pickup is in the medium-high output range, which gives it a wide range of applications from classic to modern genres.

As a single coil pickup, the SJB-3B delivers unadulterated clarity, while the large magnetic surface ensures a significantly higher output voltage and a powerful attack. The wax-sealed construction prevents microphonics and protects the pickup from unwanted feedback - even at high volumes and distorted sounds.

The pickup is supplied with a PVC-sheathed connection cable that allows easy integration into any jazz bass circuit. Visually, it remains classic in black and fits perfectly into any bridge position of a 4-string in J-style format.

Why the SJB-3B Quarter Pound is the ideal choice for modern bassists

If you are looking for a pickup that gives your Jazz Bass more assertiveness, sustain and dynamic depth at the bridge position, there is hardly any way around the Seymour Duncan SJB-3B Quarter Pound. The characteristic construction with the 1/4-inch magnets ensures a fat, powerful sound that doesn't get lost under complex band arrangements.

Whether you are looking for the typical jazz bass sound with more output or simply want a more modern, aggressive tone - the SJB-3B delivers reliably. It remains clear, articulate and musical, even at high volumes and when played intensively. Ideal for bassists who want a lot of presence in the mids and a long, sustainable sustain.
