P-90 humbuckers

Postby brother123 » Mon Jan 30, 2012 11:25 am

I'm trying to swap out my humbuckers for some P-90's

What's the best hum bucker sized p-90? What's the best one that'll achieve that sound other than getting a guitar that has em already?

Links would be awesome

Check out the p-94's dude. Its a p-90 but retro-fit for a humbucker cavity. Hopefully that helps

I'm happy with the P94s. I put them in an SG. I also had a les paul with real P90s in it and they stacked up favourably.

They look good too.

i've heard really good things about fralin p-90s. i don't know if they are humbucker shaped though...

paco or mig would be very helpful in that area.

The Fralin P-90's are not humbucker shaped. Hopefully he comes up with something similar to the P-94 but currently there isn't anything.

Lollar makes these. Never heard them, but I'd bet they are about as good as it gets. Guy makes some sweet pickups.
