The JBX is a jazz pickup with a difference.
The JBXN retains the eight hard nickel pole pieces of the JBX in Entwistle’s stress magnetic field, but using Neodymium magnets in place of the ceramic of the JBX to take advantage of the higher output power and greater definition that Neodymium provides. These are serious upgrades, they articulate extremely well!
