Pounding Jaguar


Wasn't too happy with this one due to the default pickups- not hot enough for high gain stuff. OK so the Jaguars were meant to be as such.


So these took over- Seymour Duncan's Quarter Pound for Jaguar (SJAG-3). Not available at the shops, an online purchase. If you are interested, be informed that they don't come with the cover & claw. The default covers were not compatible with these Duncans as the bobbins for the QPs are slightly wider to accommodate the bigger pole pieces. Again, these are not available locally & the online order + wait delayed the installation. 

If you are after a more aggressive, fatter sounding Jaguar tones, these are the ones to get. I enjoyed the fatter cleans as well despite a less frequent usage but those who dislike excessive high end, be warned that things could be a little extreme especially when the guitar's Mid Tone is set to CUT. Whatever the case may be, I'm glad the SJAG-3s are serving my needs. 

Another positive episode with Seymour Duncans- my kind of pickups. 👍
