Bartolini Johnny Smith Jazz Guitar Mini Humbucker (5J), With Mounting Bracket, Black
The Bartolini Johnny Smith (JS) Humbucker captures the legendary tone of classic jazz archtop guitars. Inspired by the instruments that guitar icon Johnny Smith developed together with Gibson, this dual-coil pickup combines rich warmth with exceptional clarity.
Its sound is smooth, articulate, and instantly recognizable, making it ideal for expressive jazz performances with precise response and outstanding harmonic detail. The adjustable mounting bracket allows for fingerboard mounting, preserving the guitar's natural top resonance while reducing susceptibility to feedback. As no modification of the instrument's body is required, this design is particularly well suited for hollow-body and vintage archtop guitars.Jazz guitar humbucker pickup for electric guitar6-string versionhigh fidelity, clarity, definition and articulationclassic Jazz guitar soundmounted at the end of the fretboardwith adjustable mounting bracketdual parallel humbuckingmagnetic circuit: carbon steel, brass, ceramic blade magnets (ferrite), wide but focused field, opposite coil polarityDC resistance 3.6 kOhm each coilresonant frequency 6.1 kHz50 mm / 1.97" max. sensing width2-conductor, shielded coaxial cable, core hotpassiveblack coverdimensions (L x W x H) 66.0 x 28.7 x 13.7 mm / 2.6" x 1.13" x 0.54" (height incl. cable)Note: Replacement pickups may differ slightly in shape and dimensions from the original pickups.
