Well, MJ did wind the coil herself. Probably why it works! We used dun-aged A5 magnets and the pup was underwound. I'm using it with an Antiquity P90 with A2 mags in the bridge.

Wow.

Double wow.

I guessed right. Underwinding the neck pup with a weakened A5 mag balanced quite nicely with the hotter wind bridge pup with the A2 mag. The underwind was about a 7.45 or so ohms. I can't recall exactly what the bridge normal Antiquity is but 8.5 or so I believe. The normal Antiquity neck I have is about 7.9 I think.

Anyway, I had tried some Lollar P90s and liked the neck a lot. Jason told me it was a slightly degaussed A5 mags. The Lollar I have is a bit hotter, more in the 7.9 range. I thought it was a bit too focused. Underwinding my A5 Antiquity P90 seemed to soften it up just a tad, but still gave me that balls to the wall P90 tone I crave.

It is a shame it took me 10 days to get it installed. Just didn't have enough time. Very nice pup. Thanks MJ and thanks Seymour for having us in for UGD.

Great review Scott, thanks....I hope you get a lot of enjoyment out of that P-90....

Sounds great. I bet there'll be others that wished they'd gone with a P-90, of course, I'm sure theirs sound great, too.

cool

I believe that Lew has said he likes the clear sound of A5 in the neck, and the smoothness of A2 for bridge pickups.
That would make sense with your combo.

do you ever play any slide? Because every time I play my Hamer Goldtop, I think the tone was made for slide.

enjoy!

I think Lew is the other way around. That describes me for the most part!
