They claim better string balance with more tightness, and clarity. I want hear what people say about the models with, and without rails.

Well that just sounds like a win win lol


Been thinking about changing out the Dragon IIs in my cu22… I already like the Nazgûl, maybe a rail version would be the ticket :hmm:

Can rail pickups still be split like a normal humbucker?

For the JB it does seem like a cool tweak. A bit tighter lows and a tad more aggression. Altho Duncan has recommended using a 250k pot with the JB before cause it can be a little too bright in some guitars. The rails could make it even MoReso. And they also mention using a 250k pot. Which whatver. I’ve used 250k with humbuckers numerous times.

And yes they can be split, parallel, etc
