The Eternal Vintage Hot Jazzmaster Pickup Set delivers the classic open chime and wide dynamic range that makes vintage Jazzmasters so beloved, but adds a welcome shot of extra punch and warmth where it matters most — the bridge position.
This carefully balanced set pairs a vintage-voiced neck pickup, full of open highs, smooth lows, and rich harmonic detail, with a beefier, hotter-wound bridge pickup that flirts with P90 territory — adding the girth and midrange grunt that many vintage Jazzmaster bridge pickups tend to lack.
Whether you’re chasing surf shimmer, garage grit, or fatty overdriven lead tones, the Vintage Hot Set gives you everything you love about a great Jazzmaster, with a little extra heat where you need it.
Perfect Balance — Authentic & Enhanced
The neck pickup offers airy clarity and beautiful harmonic bloom, capturing the wide, open feel that defines the Jazzmaster design. The bridge pickup thickens things up considerably, with enhanced midrange muscle and a slightly compressed attack, making it the perfect choice for players who want their Jazzmaster to hit harder without losing character.
Together, the set covers everything from bright, jangly cleans to raunchy overdrive, all with the articulation and touch-sensitivity you expect from handwound boutique pickups.
