Whitmore Willy Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Trewblue, You are now about to become a neck pickup junkie. I can't think of any pickup that has the rounded tone of a P-90 in the neck position. For me it is an addiction. Congrats! Willy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same set in an SG and the neck pu gets most of the playing. Never had a Semi Hollow with 90's. Looking forward to giving it a good work-out.

I didn't realize you just posted this; I just stuck some p-94s in my sherri and it's now a different guitar. Great choice! -Cal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny D Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I currently have a set of these in my shopping cart at GFS for my Dot, but I keep waffling between the Dream 90's, Dream 190's and the liverpools. Any advice on how you decided on these pups? I generally like a clean sound with a little reverb (Chuck Berry). I gotta decide fairly soon as my jack is about shot.

I had put a set of the Dream 90's in my SG and it really sounded good. so I figured how could I go wrong...especially in a semi hollow. Glad I did. The only thing I wound up doing was dropping both pu's pretty low. Now it sounds fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fretter Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Nice mod! Thank you, BTW you have given me the confidence to go ahead with my current mod. Initially I was going to GFS Pro Series Alnico IIs into my 339 but I guessed I screwed up the order cause I didn't the four wire lead that I thought I was getting. No coil splitting. Your post about putting a P-90 type PU into a semi hollow lets me know that the SD P-rails I just got are going to work out nicely. I also ordered the SD rings with switching capilities. These allow this PU to be used as a single coil, a rail or a humbucker. Your guitar looks like it was made for those pickups! Way to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
