The JBE Soapbar was not   designed to be simply another vintage recreation.   JBE Soapbars not only offer authentic soapbar tone but also  the presence,   musicality and noise free performance that are characteristic of all JBE   pickups. Liike our entire   line of pickups, we sought to develop a Soapbar pickup that would meet  today's music demands with players   expectations  for a high fidelity soapbar design.   It simply had to be more than a vintage   recreation.  

 

JBE Soapbars have all the   characteristic vibe of  soapbar pickups but with... "more". The bridge pickup has the"attitude" players expect from a soapbar pickup,    taking guitar solos to greater heights.  The neck pickup is wonderfully warm,   clear and present...never dull or lifeless. With both switched 'on' you get a wonderfully hollow/woody sound that seems to belie the tonal character of each pickup seperately.   Equally   impressive is that the noise and hum of traditional soapbars are totally   eliminated in the JBE design, making them perfect for recording and live   performance.
