Description
Take the classic soapbar clank, feed it extra coil windings and a pair of small ceramic magnets, and you get the Hot Soapbar neck pickup – a P-90 with real muscle behind it. This is the SP90-3 lineage turned up: more output, longer sustain, and a heightened sensitivity to how you actually hit the strings.
- High-output P-90 voicing built for heavy blues, classic rock, hard rock, punk, and metal
- Extra coil windings + dual ceramic magnets for increased output and sustain
- Pronounced upper-mid detail that helps it cut through a dense mix, more noticeable than the standard SP90-3
- Slightly shorter .585″ height profile
- Single-conductor hookup cable included
- Neck position, finished in black
Where a vintage-style P-90 tends to sit back and purr, this one leans in – the added mid-range bite keeps single notes and chords from getting swallowed up once the gain kicks in. Pair it with its bridge counterpart for a matched, balanced set, or go the mix-and-match route: plenty of players run this Hot neck alongside an SP90-1 Vintage in the bridge (or vice versa) to cover a wider spread of tones from one guitar.
Drop it into any soapbar-routed guitar as a direct upgrade when you want more push out of your neck pickup without losing the P-90’s inherent snarl and character.
