Product Description
Seymour Duncan 11108-16-NC Phat Cat Set Guitar Pickup Neck and Bridge in Nickel
The traditional P-90 has a sound that is more powerful than a single coil, but is cleaner and clearer than a humbucker. However, the physical shape of a P-90 makes it so it wont fit in most guitars without modification. The Phat Cat Set solves this, by putting a traditional P-90 under a humbucker cover so more people could access the beefed-up single-coil sound. In this set, the bridge pickup is RW/RP so it cancels hum when both pickups are used together.
Originally developed in the Custom Shop for Hamer Guitars, a Phat Cat is an actual single-coil P-90 Soapbar that fits under a humbucker cover and drops into humbucker-equipped guitars. The tone is big and fat, er, phat. It uses two Alnico 2 magnets for more sustain and softer attack. Also, the metal covers provide more shielding and noise reduction than standard soapbar covers. Comes with single-conductor hookup cable.
Features:
- Fat P-90 tone that retrofits into your humbucker-equipped guitar
