his first pickups. It looks and sounds just like a '59. Available in black,

This pickup is for players who need an accurate, clear tone
for fast jazz runs. The brighter sound has slightly less output and is a good
match with most pickups. A popular combination is The Jazz in the neck
with either a JB (SH-4) or Duncan Custom (SH-5) in the bridge.
Available in black, zebra (cream & black), reverse zebra and white as well
as the following colors at no extra charge -- red, red & black, pink,
green, light blue, dark blue & yellow. Four conductor cable. Neck model

8.
SHR 1B W Hot Rails |
| |
£85
|
are one of the highest output pickups we make. It's a
humbucker that fits into a normal single coil slot, so you get the noise
canceling effect without cutting a large hole in your guitar. The two thin
blades with powerful coil windings give you the incredible sustain and a fat,
full sound that's needed for playing heavier rock music. This pickup responds
to the subtlest finger movements. Available in black or white Four conductor
cable
