P90 PICKUPS

From Warm Growl to Punchy Bite

The captivating sound of P90 pickups, while sometimes residing in the shadows alongside other iconic guitar tones, holds a unique magic all its own. For many, the true potential of P90-loaded guitars becomes apparent through experiencing a truly exceptional instrument. A pivotal moment often arrives with the introduction to a 'tonal giant' – perhaps a vintage Gibson Les Paul Goldtop, revealing the sheer sonic power and versatility these pickups possess. The discovery of early P90s from the '50s, with their distinct character and sonic nuances, can be a revelation. These vintage examples often serve as the benchmark for those seeking that classic P90 growl and sustain, inspiring the creation of modern interpretations like the SB 52 Set, which aims to capture the essence of those legendary tones
