Seymour Duncan Antiquity Soapbar P-90 Neck Pickup (Black)

The Seymour Duncan Antiquity Soapbar P-90 neck pickup delivers the full, round warmth that defined classic P-90 tone, with a sweet, singing quality on single notes that rewards melodic playing and sustain. Hand-fabricated using vintage construction methods, this pickup pairs meticulous craftsmanship with modern hum-cancelling winding to eliminate AC noise when matched with a bridge pickup. Built for players seeking authentic P-90 character without compromise, this neck model sits naturally in Gibson and Epiphone soapbar routes.

Tone & Electronics

The 7.80k ohms DC resistance and Alnico 2 bar magnets create a balanced, articulate response that emphasizes midrange clarity and harmonic richness. Reverse-wound, reverse-policed (RW/RP) construction cancels hum when paired with a matching bridge pickup, allowing you to run a two-pickup rig in noisier environments without sacrificing the signature P-90 voice.

Construction & Design

Hand-fabricated bobbin, plain enamel magnet wire, and flatback tape underscore vintage authenticity, while vacuum wax potting ensures stability and reduces microphonic feedback. The black cover and braided push-back lead finish the classic aesthetic, and six fillister head pole pieces provide precise magnetic alignment for even response across the string span.
