LarryUK Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I've been thinking of changing my neck P90 to a staple(Alnico) one. What is the sound difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Scales Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Clearer/brighter (?) might be handy for a bit of arpeggio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 From 'Premier Guitar' (reviewing Jason Lollar's 'Staple' recreation); "...Unlike regular P-90s, where steel pole pieces make contact with an internal coil and magnet, the staple's pole pieces are themselves elongated rectangular magnets that extend through the coil. Gibson probably created the design to compete with the brighter tones of the DeArmond pickups in rival Gretsch guitars, not to mention those newfangled Fenders. And sure enough, the design yields better string-to-string differentiation and improved high-end detail..." Pip. EDIT : It will also look V. cool in your ebony beauty......

NHTom Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Has anyone tried or got the Seymour Duncan Hot P90? Yes, I have one in the bridge of one of my specials. Just what is says.......a hot P90. I like it. Good grit and pushes an amp well. NHTom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
