Seymour Duncan SPH90-1N Phat Cat Nickel Cover

Description

11302-15-NC A set of Phat Cats delivers real P-90 growl and bite in any humbucker-equipped guitar without modification. Do you want the focused midrange bite and unique attack of a P-90, but you have a humbucker-routed instrument? You need a set of humbucker-sized Phat Cat P90s. The Phat Cat is a true single-coil ''soapbar'' P90 mounted under a humbucker cover for use in humbucker-equipped guitars. We initially developed this pickup in the Seymour Duncan Custom Shop for Hamer guitars, but eventually, demand grew so great that we moved it into regular production. The Phat Cat gives you and the authentic P90 bounce and shimmer in the neck position that you would expect from a great vintage P90 ''soapbar''. Chords have bright, ringing harmonic overtones while solos have that classic P90 cut and edge. We use two Alnico 2 bar magnets to give you more sustain and a compressed attack, while the metal covers provide more shielding and noise reduction than standard soapbar covers. Other appointments include a nickel silver bottom plate, one-conductor braided hookup wire, and vacuum wax potting for squeal-free performance. The neck model is RW/RP, reverse wind reverse polarity, from the bridge pickup to provide hum-canceling operation when used together. Phat Cat humbucker-sized P90 pickups are hand-built in Santa Barbara, California.
