Relive the golden era of rock and blues with the Seymour Duncan Antiquity P90 Soapbar pickups. Crafted in a creamy hue, these pickups bring vintage style and sound right to your fingertips, featuring hand-fabricated bobbins, plain enamel mag wire, and classic flatback tape, mirroring the celebrated techniques from the historic Kalamazoo workshops.
At the core of these pickups are the Alnico 2 magnets, revered for their ability to replicate the warm, rich tones characteristic of the early '50s Les Pauls. The bridge pickup boasts a robust 8.6k output, delivering the aggressive bite needed for cutting through the mix, while the neck pickup is reverse-wound and reverse-polarity to ensure your performances remain crisp and clean without any hum.
Each pickup is encased in a single conductor braided cable, reinforcing durability while preserving sound purity. These passive pickups are a breeze to install in any standard P90-sized rout, making them an ideal choice for either replacing worn-out pickups or upgrading your guitar.
The Seymour Duncan Antiquity P90 Soapbar pickups are not just about sound; their hand-aged, cream covers provide a visual nod to their vintage roots, adding an element of classic charm to your guitar.
