A P-90 Designed to Recapture the "Vintage" Character
The SP90-1B-C embodies the spirit of classic P-90s: a single-coil pickup with a distinctive personality, appreciated for its organic response and sonic character. With its cream finish and soapbar format, it aims for faithful integration into traditional setups while providing a solid foundation for tonal and musical sounds.
For Which Styles and Guitarists?
Designed for the bridge position, this pickup suits guitarists seeking twang, bite, and rich harmonics without losing the warmth of the midrange. It excels particularly in country, jazz, swing, blues, rockabilly, classic rock, and heavy rock, with a great ability to shift from a snappy clean tone to a thick crunch through right-hand attack and guitar volume control.
Responsiveness, Definition, and Presence at the Bridge
With a 9.35 kOhm resistance and a resonance peak at 3.8 kHz, the SP90-1B-C emphasizes presence and clarity, especially useful at the bridge for articulate riffs and singing leads. Its 1-conductor wiring keeps things simple: a straightforward connection to retain direct response, ideal for traditional "vintage"-oriented setups.
