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)

With less in the lows and mids and plenty in the highs, it's going to cut through.

You might still get a little grit on clean amp settings, but it gets nice and glassy when the coils are split.

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.
