Description
The SP90-2 Hot Soapbar takes the classic P-90 formula and turns up the wick. Extra coil winding paired with dual small ceramic magnets gives this neck pickup a noticeable bump in output over the standard SP90-3, along with longer sustain and a heightened sensitivity to how you actually pick and fret the strings.
What really sets it apart is the upper-midrange bite. Where vintage-style P-90s can sit back in a mix, this one pushes forward with a pronounced honk that cuts through heavy blues, classic rock, hard rock, punk, and metal alike. It’s a soapbar for players who want P-90 texture but need it to compete with dirtier amps and denser arrangements.
Physically, it runs a slightly shorter .585″ height profile, and it ships with a single-conductor hookup cable for straightforward wiring into your existing harness.

For a balanced pairing, match it with the SP90-1 Hot in the bridge. Or if you want more tonal range across positions, plenty of players run this Hot neck alongside a Vintage SP90-1 in the bridge for a blend of punch and classic warmth.
