Our vintage correct recreation of the 1946 Gibson single-coil with
all of the midrange grittiness, sparkle, and growl that make vintage
P90 pickups so special.
The dual alnico 5 bar magnets, and the
short, wide bobbins give the P90 its unique tonal character with a
powerful midrange and higher output than most other types of single
coils.
In the neck position, this pickup sounds sweet and smooth,
and will deliver big fat sounding chords. In the bridge position, this
pickup has sparkly mids that really give it a gritty, open tone. Chords
have a nice harmonic bloom, and single notes are glassy and up-front.
Both
the neck and bridge pickups are drop-in replacements for most
traditional Gibson-sized P90 soapbars. Our Vintage P90s are wound with
plain enamel wire, and we add extra mojo by winding them on the same
Leesona winder that was used in the 1950s in the old Gibson factory.
Come with vintage braided single-conductor hookup cable and are wax
potted for squeal free performance.
