P-90 Single Coil Pickup Legendary Tone

First introduced in the early 1950s Gibson's legendary P90 single coil pickup produced a raw powerful tone that helped define the blues and rock and roll in their formative years. Today the P90's traditional combination of high output and brilliant tone is still considered a favorite among many top musicians. Known by such familiar nicknames as the "Soapbar" and the "Cobalt\n" the P90 still cuts through any type of music all while displaying amazing tonal sensitivity for everything from blues and rock to mellow jazz riffs. It's perfect as a vintage replacement and features vintage braided two-conductor wiring. It's also fully wax potted to eliminate any chance of unwanted microphonic feedback.
