Dimarzio DP280BK Vintage P90 Black Electric Guitar Soapbar Pickup
Brand: DiMarzio

P90 pickups are a different breed. DiMarzios Vintage P90 is a recreation of the late 50s Gibson single-coil with all of the midrange grittiness that makes a P90 pickup special. DiMarzios Vintage P90 starts with our calibrated dual Alnico 5 sandcast magnets and is wound on a specially-made vintage winding machine custom-designed by DiMarzio. This machine was used to create the correct winding profile and frequency response, and the winding process is unique. We use vintage tape, braided single-conductor hookup cable, and un-dipped coils. This design gives the Vintage P90 its sparkly mids and the growl of a vintage 50s Les Paul. Chords have a nice harmonic bloom, and single notes are glassy with up-front silkiness. P90s found their way into classic 60s and 70s recordings like Leslie West and Mountain. Chords have a warm but sparkly midrange bite, and single notes jump out nicely without sounding harsh. This pickup is a drop-in replacement for any standard P90 sized soapbar.
