'59 Clone Jazzmaster® Pickup
We found many inconsistencies with the originals when it came to output and tone, however, the ones that were special had a certain power and warmth that stood out above the rest.
Mojotone Jazzmaster® clones represent the most spectacular '59 Jazzmaster® pickups in every way. We do handwound coils with Alnico 5 cast rod magnets, and vintage correct plain enamel wire. The coils aren't just "handwound", we found a specific tension and winding pattern that made them sing and we replicated that perfectly.
The neck pickup is clear and loud with exceptional clarity and warmth. The bridge pickup has a loose feel with lots of power and tone just like a killer '59 Jazzmaster® pickup. Reverse wound for hum-cancelling when both pickups are together. No doubt we nailed it. Vacuum potted coils.

Crisp. Defined. Yet, hand
by Jeffrey
Let’s face it, I’m a Tele / SG guy. But like to try out new guitars.
One was my Epi Slash Firebird that I put up for sale last year. I got an interesting offer for a J Mascis Jazzmaster with these 59 Mojotone Pups (and other upgrades).
Never owned a Jazzmaster, but met up with him and this thing sounded phenomenal. Had the exact tone that had been sitting in my head for years.
Crisp. That’s the word I’d use to describe these pups. Arpeggios never sounded so clear with a light overdrive on them. Perfect for Sublime/RHCP. Tho, lately I’ve noticed how well they handle high gain…so might lower my string gauge and put my Teles to the side for awhile.
A killer JM set for a killer price

I've been trying many sets of Jazzmaster pickups for the past 5 years or so and finally got my hands on these pickups. They are so gorgeous sounding, well made, and well balanced. Compared to the Fender Pure Vintage '65 JM pickups, these have more warmth and fatness. Plus, the bridge pickup is slightly overwound vs the neck. This gives great balance when switching pickups that the Fender set lacks. These work great for any style of music and are very well built. One touch I like is that the hookup wires are run through a hole before turning back around to the solder joint. This gives greater mechanical strength and will increase the longevity of the pickups. They don't squeal under volume/gain either which is a plus. The price is quite a good value, you should definitely consider these pickups for your Jazzmaster!!
