          if it were a duncan designed im sure DDJ would actually stand for "Duncan Designed Junk"!
          Duncan Distortion wound by Michael Jackson?!?! wow!! kidding : )

          so it is infact a distortion then? ive heard of the MJ wound distortions actually, apparently they sound a little different to a regular distortion? it does sound great either way, it'll most likely be going into my next project idea : )
          thanks guys

              I have the DD103 in my Kelly, its the best sounding p/u I own. The competition it has are a real JB, EMG HZ-H4, and the stock actives in the new V(which sound damn good for actives, theyre in 2nd place). Id trade a JB or Duncan Distortion for the Duncan Designed DD103 any day.

                DD means Duncan Distortion. The J is the initial of the person who wound it, which would be Maricela Juarez... she's Seymour's leading lady. It really shouldn't sound any different than any other.
                I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

                      I have a DDJ but it's a zebra so it's got twice the mojo. If only it were double cream

                      I haven't wired up the DDJ, but I don't expect it to sound like the HB103B. I'd expect it to be a little less smooth and a little more obnoxious. It's waiting for a solid maple Lynch project I need to finish.
