Most of Trujilio's basses have EMG Jazz pickups, though they ain't Jazz's.
The bassist from Alter Bridge uses a Sadowsky Jazz.
The bassist from Fear Factory/Strapping Young Lad uses custom shop Fender Jazz's, and Roscoe Becks, but the J's have EMG humbuckers.

Ryan Wombacher of Bleeding Through uses a jazz 5er when not playing his soundgear.
also the bunches of post-hardcore-punk-pop bands out there.
Examples: A Day To Remember, Ecape the Fate, Arsonist get all the Girls, Parkway Drive ect.
Jazzs are a beast of many tones. |

Arguably, JP Jones if you consider Led Zep to be metal enough. |

Judging by the names mentioned so far, it seems alot of metalcore bands uses it. Not my kind of thing, but I didn't know Opeth used one. One more reason for me to check them out. |
