Seymour Duncan's SH-2 Jazz Model neck humbucker 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.

The covers are built from the same materials as the original covered humbuckers designed by Seth Lover five decades ago. Unlike their predecessors however, the hand-built Classic Covers are double wax-potted for squeal-free performance and the elimination of microphonics and feedback.
