From his band's appearance at the second night of Woodstock to his venerable hit "Mississippi Queen" in 1970, Leslie West has embodied the dynamic richness of the P90 pickup. This is our nod to Mr. West's music and the smokey, thick tone he was able to wrestle from his Les Paul Jr and Sunn Coliseum PA amp.
Dual, special cast, AlNiCo A5's in the neck and AlNiCo A2's in the bridge pickup, individually charged with a special enamel coated copper wire, all nickel baseplates and vintage specific screws add to their authentic tone.
This set is reverse wired, reverse polarity for hum cancellation in the middle position.
We recommend 500k pots.
Neck 7.4k DCR
Bridge 8k DCR
Vintage Output.
These were my first P90 set ever, and I couldn’t be happier! I described what I wanted and Mike nailed it. The clarity and articulation these pickups have is out of this world. If you’re looking for a great P90 set grab yourself some of these bad boys!
Leslie West! I was looking for that tone, and it's here, in spades! Grit, bite, snarl...whatever you want to call it, this has it! This P90 is MEAN! And, back the volume down a bit on your guitar, and it sweetens up BEAUTIFULLY. This P90 is a GEM. Well rounded, great clarity, and amazing grit when wanted. Get it. That's all i'm going to say. Get it, and ROCK the freaking house down!
