StewMac Modern Soapbar P-90 Pickup, Bridge Position, Original, Black Cover

StewMac Modern Soapbar P-90 Pickups

We've captured the soul of these iconic pickups and added a few tweaks for modern players to create the versatile P-90s ever. 

The new standard for replacement pickups
One of the earliest pickup designs, P-90s have a wonderful, warm tone that is equally suited for clean jazz and overdriven rock. Loaded with Alnico 5 magnets, the balanced tone is bright but not harsh, and the bass is rounded and never muddy.

Versatility for every player
We took these up a notch by potting them for quiet operation—a must have for overdriven tones. The poly-coated wire also gives the pickup a smoother sound. The fiber flatwork also looks great for installations with the covers removed.

Each pickup is custom-wound for neck and bridge positions. The bridge is wound hotter for a more balanced tone and output.

By player request—all the tone and no hum!
The neck position is reverse wound/reverse polarity (RWRP) for hum cancellation in the middle position. For vintage non-hum-canceling wiring, use two "original" bridge pickups.

Direct replacement design
StewMac P-90s are drop-in replacements compatible with Gibson Les Paul Juniors, SG Juniors, and SG Specials, plus archtop and semi-hollowbody Gibsons made for P-90s. And they're great choices for custom builds.
