An "Old School" P90 Designed for Humbucker-Format Guitars

The PHAT CAT was created for guitarists who love the temperament of a vintage P90 but don't want to undertake modifications to the body or pickguard. Seymour Duncan captures the aesthetic and sonic intent of the 1950s single-coil pickups, adapting them into a humbucker-sized pickup housing for a clean and reversible installation.

Who It's For and Why: Switching from a Humbucker to a More "Open" Sound

This Bridge model is aimed at musicians who find their bridge humbucker too compressed or too dark and are seeking more definition and playing responsiveness. Perfect for vintage rock, blues, pop, and anything that demands a dynamic sound, it highlights right-hand nuances and volume variations on the guitar.

What the Alnico 2 Brings: Warmth, Dynamics, and Personality

Thanks to its Alnico 2 magnet, this PHAT CAT favors a smooth and organic feel, with precise attack and rich harmonics. The result: a pickup that adds depth to chords, bite to riffs, and a strong presence in solos, all while maintaining a very "vintage" musicality. The Nickel finish completes the package with a classic look that naturally matches guitars equipped with metal covers.
