We can now offer humbucker size P90's. under the cover is an actual P90 bobbin cut down to size, with two flanking magnets just like the full size model.

That's very nice. In fact, I was just thinking about something like that today. In the (far but hopefully near) future I'm gonna be looking for a gothic explorer. I'm want to put on a black powder coated diamond plate pickguard and put in my Warpig in the bridge. For the neck pickup I was thinking about a Pig-90 in a humbucker housing. :twisted:

Nice, reminds me of my soon to be replaced Phat Cat - wqs going to go for the Emerald in the bridge of my Strat (currently have an SD Antiquity in the neck and a Texas Special in the bridge), but the Cold Sweat has got me in a sweat! Hmmm! :)

Ah, that's gonna make getting a guitar with soapbar style pickups so very, very much easier!

So, what does one of these cost then?
I might be interested in a HB-sized P-90 with chrome cover myself... :?:

Is it available in black plastic - or is it chrome only

By the way the Pups on my Esprit are slightly odd stock 80s Schaller ones measuring approx 79mm x 35mm with 3 screws - It may be dumb but can BKP makes P90s and h/b's that fit this measurement?

Chrome , nickel and gold only.
We don't do custom sizes but could rewind yours as long as they haven't been epoxyed into the covers.

Cheers for the reply - looks like I will have to get a tech to make the holes bigger - not that I care, as I want BKPs in my tone machine.

By the way what would go with a HB sized BKP90 in the neck?  Classic PAF tone, lowish power please SM, Mule or BD?

Maybe a Riff Raff or an emerald. Mule would be good but has a higher output.

Emerald + BKP90 = Ultimate blues axe?

Emerald is higher output than a Mule so I'g go for a Mule for that classic PAf tone with a humbucking P90 in the neck-lovely :D
