I love my LP Jr and it gets played 90% of the time while my other guitars sit and watch. It’s easy to swap pups and P90’s are very dynamic which make it easy to hear the differences among models.
Last week I said the underwound Gibson A3 was never coming out. Well it did today…..lol. It was so different that my ears “thought” it was great. But since I play heavy stuff, I started missing the push really quick.
I’ll preface by saying I’ve never used a Dimarzio pup of any kind that stuck around very long and I’ve tried a LOT. But they nailed it on the Vintage P90. It growls with clarity and is extremely touch sensitive. Can hit pinches like a high output bucker with ease. It’s like the stock A5 Gibson (which was borderline great) but can handle high gain better and stays focused.
Just thought I would toss this out for old school P90 guys. Don’t let the name Dimarzio shy you away. It’s significantly better than the others I’ve tried: stock Gibson, underwound Gibson, BKP Nantucket, Wolfetone Meaner, Brandonwound, Manlius Howlin Goat, Duncan Antiquity, and Amalfitano.
