Frequently Asked Questions
The JCB-1 is a lower impedance design, offering a tighter, more focused low-end response and less muddiness compared to standard Epiphone pickups.
Yes, the semi-hollow construction does contribute a noticeable acoustic resonance, though it’s amplified through the electronics – it's not a true acoustic bass.
It essentially splits the coils of the humbuckers, giving you a brighter, more articulate tone in the second position, while the third position is a single coil sound.
