    Default Any Minibuckers close to the Seymour Jazz Humbucker?

    Hey guys, I'm obviously new here.

    I bought an Epiphone Nighthawk Custom that I would like to start modding.

    Ive narrowed down the Bridge (Slanted JB) and Single Coil (Quarterpounder) I want to use but I don't know very much about mini-humbuckers, so I am here for suggestions and opinions.

    The Nighthawk comes with a mini at the neck and I would like to find a replacement that is nice, thick, and deep. I will primarily be using it with heavy distortion.

    I fell in love with the Seymour Duncan Jazz pickup at the neck in my Fernades Revolver and I am looking to get the closest sounding mini that I can get to it.

    I see Duncan has a few different ones to offer as well as DiMarzio which is nice because there is no logo pounded into them.

    Thoughts and reccomendations are appreciated!!

    The Jazz isn't a thick or deep sounding pickup. The SM-1 will get you in the tonal ballpark of the Jazz. SM-2 or SM-3 if you want thicker tones. I'd call MJ at the factory and ask her advice.
