As nkphnx said.

You can also reduce the guitar's volume (as it will roll off some treble too).

And also clean amps such as tweed or blackface fenders.

There are many other stuff you can try out too though.

lulz...

Aim for getting a jazz tone is for the guitar to be not sharp and treble-ish in the sound... so kill off some of it's tone and try to emulate a semi-hollow guitar sound and tone...

For me i will stick to using either the neck pickups or the neck and bridge pick ups... i will not use the bridge pick up unless it's for a particular "sharp part/high tone" which i wanna play... *using 2 humbuckers for my guitar with 3 way switch*

You could also try Electro Harmonix's KnockOut pedal. Turns your LP into a strat sound and vice versa.
