It used to be hard to tell what the best P90 is. Right now it's a tossup between the duncan vintage, the lollar "normal" and the Tonerider Hot P90 which retains all the goodness of the vintage sound while somehow being hotter. It's also a good bit cheaper.Enter the Phat Cat.. It does not sound exactly like the classic P90. It actually sounds meaner. It can still do those beautiful cleans, but you do need to roll of the volume a little bit. Just like a hot P90. Gimp it a little to get those tones, and those tones.... I thought I'd lose something. Nope. By my ears I'm gaining some dynamics in my sound. Especially when pushed. This is becoming my favorite pickup of all time. It's also quieter because of the shielding. Nice bonus. I don't care, I use a noise gate. I'm not going to give up tone for something that can be fixed with a pedal. And I say this with complete confidence: There are ZERO GOOD SOUNDING HUMLESS P90'S. NONE. I love Lindy a lot and even his aren't perfect. This is closer to P90 dynamics. Almost anything else can be EQ'd. Not the dynamics, or a huge hump in the tone like humbuckers have. The best you can do is very close with PAF style humbuckers, or putting Hotrails pickups in things with .022 caps. That sound is so close I do it for mustangs sometimes, while being humless. But it holds, either it hums and sounds good, or it doesn't. Even the best sounding "humless" where you go "oh that's close!" you listen, there's a little hum. Whatever trick they are using isn't fully working. That's why it sounds good. These go GREAT in alder wood guitars with maple fretboards. Just spend 6 bucks and get a 0.022 capacitor for the tone stack if it doesn't already have one. Also, if you have a Duo-Sonic HS like me, the Dark Matter 2 brushed chrome single coil from dimarzio is a great pairing. Get the middle wound one so it doesn't phase.

It sounds just like a p90. Very happy with this pickup on the the bridge of my Epiphone SG special. It’s very warm and sounds like a Les Paul jr. only slightly brighter and “alive” due to the guitar itself. Very crunchy. Punchy bass, clear mids, mellow treble. It looks great too with the cover. Hum and interference isn’t terrible. I’m playing thru a fender champion 20 and it still sounds good despite that being a budget amp. Able to cover sounds from weezer to greenday to deftones. Very versatile. I can clearly hear each note in a chord whether it’s clean or distorted. No mud. I use 500K pots with an orange drop cap on the tone pot. and it sounds great. Not too bright. That’s up to personal preferences though. Overall I would highly recommend this pickup!

Installato dopo aver messo quello al manico. Al momento sono indeciso se lasciarlo o tornare all’humbucker al ponte. Il Phat cat al manico mi ha entusiasmato, questo al ponte fa bene coppia con quello al manico, ma sincerante mi ha impressionato meno. Cmq buon pickup, la qualità generale di Seymour Duncan c’è tutta come sempre

Grandi pickup, non c’è che dire, se ti piace il suono dei P90. Anzi, per me, rispetto ai classici P90 Gibson hanno più “grit”, più forza, e mi hanno sorpreso in positivo. Sono delle dimensioni di un humbucker e ti permette di montarli su una chitarra non predisposta per dei P90, nel mio caso una normale SG.Unico problema (risolto con un po’ di fatica) il pick-up al manico e quello al ponte, entrambi Seymour Duncan Phat Cat, erano in controfasce tra loro, È la seconda volta che mi capita con dei Seymour Duncan, ed é il prezzo che a volte di paga con le produzioni “manuali”.

I put this in my B. C. Rich warlock, everyone saidI was crazy, everyone was wrong. This has got the beefy output I was looking for and gives me a lovely crunchy clean tone when I ask, I installed it myself and having never changed a pickup in my life I was worried but the installation was incredibly easy, soldered it the the pick up selector and boom beautiful beefy power.
