Gibson P90 Soapbar BK

Pickup

Before Gibson developed the legendary PAF humbucker, the P90 Soap Bar single coil was built into most Gibsons as a standard pickup. In the 70s and 80s this classic was overlooked, but in recent years the Soapbar has experienced a renaissance in many guitars. An especially popular combination: mahogany guitar with P90. Nowadays hardly any manufacturers have such a model as part of their product range.

What many guitarists love about the P90 / 94: Open sound and dynamics of a single coil pickup along with the bite and (if desired) distortion of a humbucker. The ideal pickup for Blues-/Crunch-sound. In comparison to the original, the P90 has greater output. A very hot tip for slide guitarists as well! - Black finish!

Changed roswell neck p90 pickup for this one and difference is huge - full tone in all frequences, reminds a bit humbucker, warm and beatiful sounding. Highly recommend!

Gibson quality as always

I upgraded my lap steel guitar with Gibson P90, in short, the result is better than I expected. It is significantly noiseless and very powerful.

Great pickup. I used it as a replacement for Epiphone P-90 pickup and I'm highly satisfied with a sound.

Installed in neck position, sound is fat and creamy, played in blues and stoner as far as i'm concerned.
Price is pretty fair compared to oder manufacturers
