What players and reviewers say
Players comparing them
“The Full Shred is a tad lower in output and gets close to the lead sound of a JB.”
On the Seymour Duncan Full Shred (SH-10)
“A Full Shred sounds very nice in that guitar, similar to a Strat lead pickup but much hotter and more full sounding on the low end.”
“Common Complaints Some people complain that the Full Shred is harsh, too bright, or doesn't have enough bass ...”
On the Seymour Duncan JB Model (SH-4)
“JB is very touchy. It likes the heights about the same on the high and low side.”
“I love JB's in a Les Paul or other Mahogany/Maple body. I had one in an Alder Jackson SL3 and did not like it in there.”
