Description
Van Zandt built this P-90 soapbar around the same vintage-correct thinking that runs through their whole catalog: get the construction right and the tone follows. Compared to a Strat or Tele single-coil, this pickup pushes more midrange and more output, so you get that thicker, hornier P-90 bark instead of glassy top-end sparkle.
- Vintage-inspired soapbar design
- Fatter midrange and higher output than typical Strat/Tele pickups
- Opens up a range of in-phase and out-of-phase textures for players who like to experiment with wiring
- Ships with a black cover
Jazz players lean on it for warmth and note definition, rock players lean on it for grit and attitude, and it holds up just as well on basses with more than four strings, where that extra midrange punch really helps you cut through a busy mix. If you’re chasing the raw, slightly unruly character that made P-90s a favorite long before humbuckers took over, this is a straightforward way to get there without gutting your whole wiring harness.
A solid pick if you’re rewiring a project guitar, restoring something vintage-flavored, or just want a pickup with real personality sitting in the parts bin for your next build.
