Seymour Duncan Antiquity Dog Ear P-90 Neck Pickup

The Antiquity Dog Ear P-90 delivers the warm, woody midrange and smooth sustain characteristic of vintage P-90 designs, with aged components that capture the tonal character of guitars that have been played for decades. This neck position model is wound reverse-wound/reverse-polarity to achieve hum cancellation when paired with the bridge position equivalent, making it ideal for players seeking authentic vintage tone without the 60-cycle hum typical of single-coil designs. Hand-fabricated construction and period-correct materials ensure this pickup performs as a direct drop-in replacement for any standard Gibson P-90 dog ear route.

Tone & Electronics

With a measured DC resistance of 7.9K ohms and inductance of 6.85 henries, this pickup produces a balanced, articulate response that sits naturally in a mix without excessive output compression. The Q factor of 2.84 indicates a controlled resonance peak, yielding the smooth, singing character P-90s are known for rather than harsh peaks or thin articulation.

Design & Construction

Two specially calibrated Dun-Aged Alnico II magnets are mounted to a precision metal spacer with six fillister head pole pieces, paired with a hand-fabricated bobbin wound with plain enamel magnet wire and flatback tape. The aged thermoformed black cover completes the vintage aesthetic while the top-going winding direction with north magnet polarity and reverse-wound/reverse-polarity construction ensures hum rejection in stereo configurations.
