Bridge
Summary
A true P90 bridge tone in a standard sized humbucker slot. No routing required.
Description
Originally developed in the Custom Shop for Hamer Guitars, the
Phat Cat is a true single-coil P90 Soapbar which fits under a
humbucker cover and drops into humbucker-equipped guitars. You get all
of the authentic bridge position grit and growl that you’d expect from a
vintage P90 Soapbar. We wound the bridge to give you chords with lots
of bright harmonics, and solos have that sharp single coil cut. It
uses two Alnico 2 bar magnets for more sustain and softer attack. And
the metal covers provide more shielding and noise reduction than
standard soapbar covers. Pair with our Phat Cat neck model for a
complete set. Hand built in Santa Barbara, CA, the Phat Cat uses dual
Alnico 2 bar magnets, custom nickel or gold cover, nickel silver
bottom plate, and single-conductor braided hookup wire. Vacuum wax
potted for squeal free operation.
Output
- DCR:8.5

single-coil P-90 Soapbar that fits under a humbucker cover and drops
into humbucker-equipped guitars. You get all of the authentic neck
position bounce and sparkle that youd expect from a vintage Gibson P90
Soapbar. Chords have lots of rich harmonics, and solos have that unique
single coil springiness. It uses two Alnico 2 bar magnets for more
sustain and softer attack. And, the metal covers provide more shielding
and noise reduction than standard soapbar covers. The neck model is
RWRP, reverse wind reverse polarity, from the bridge pickup to provide
noiseless operation when used together.Pair with our Phatr Cat bridge
