I've tried Lollar Jazzmaster pickups in two different Jazzmasters, and liked both of them a lot! One had the stock Lollar JM pickups, and the other had a stock JM pickup in the neck with his P-90 JM pickup in the bridge. I always wanted to try the Novak JM pickups of some variety, as I've tried his Tele and Strat pickups, and like them a lot, but figured if it ain't broke, don't fix it, so I never replaced my Lollar JM's with Novaks.
Hope that helps, cheers.

Give Aero pickups a call, great service and they will work with you.
I spent a bout 45 min on the phone with them to get a set of type 2 J bass pickups just the way I wanted them.
Highly recommended.

If anyone on here replaces their CP jazzmaster pickups i'll buy your old ones to put in my project MIJ.
Oh and metalmariachi, my band's playing the Black Cat this saturday, you should come out and check out the rig and my new jazzmaster! Plus the music's pretty cool as well....

i was really surprised at how much i liked the PUs on the Squier J Mascis, because i didn't like the PUs on the sparkly purple Fender J Mascis at all. i wound up rocking some James Gang, which isn't exactly what you'd expect to play on a Jazzmaster. "Walk Away," "Funk #49."

Thank you so much!
Here are more shots:
