thanks for the reply, guitar is an american walnut solid body jaguar style with strat neck, 25.5" scale. I like the strat sound on the neck pick up, in fact I liked the sound of my '73 SG1 with a seymour duncan mini humbucker, it only had the one pick up at the neck. That also was walnut. I may just use one pick up on this one to start. You know I cannot remember what pick up it was now, I have looked at so many. My biggest problem is I cannot describe the sound I like but I was looking to get a jazz guitar sound, mellow and not to sharp in the treble, I believe the jazz style humbuckers still sound good with rock when overdriven. I am under no illusion that I will get it right first time.
