Any ideas about this P90?

[Pappysquat]

is this a dog ear? 60's? 70's? aftermarket? I bought a 62 LP Jr and it had this pickup with a non original dog ear pickup cover. also included a shot of the harness where its soldered. looks old. any ideas? thanks

There is no difference between a P90 and a Dog Ear P90, just the cover. Looks like every P90 I've ever seen.

Neasure the DCR. If it is around 8ko it is probably a Gibson P90.

Show us some guitar pics. What did you pay?

i know but it has the side tabs. is it old? bought the LP Jr for 800. someone moved the stop bridge back and added another gibson bridge, going to restore it but not sure about the pickup.

looks like its actually a late '61 LP Jr. checked the pots and it has the smooth bridge and slanted position.

 

honestly i think its the original P90 that someone replaced the cover. solder looks untouched to me.

 

tough to get to the leads to measure the resistance too so im not sure

Get a short cable and measure the plug
