Frequently asked questions
Are the tone and output identical between the ivory and white versions?
Yes. Both feature Alnico V magnets, the same active preamp circuit, 10 kOhm output impedance, 1.87 MHz resonant frequency, and identical electronics. The only difference is cosmetic.
Which color works better for rock, metal, or blues?
Tone-wise, neither has an advantage—both deliver punchy, articulate response suited to rock, blues, hard rock, and metal. Choose the color that matches your guitar's visual style.
Will either pickup require modification to fit my P90 cavity?
No. Both are P90-sized with 3.125 inch screw spacing and fit standard P90 cavities directly. They also accommodate standard single-coil and wide P90 routes without modification.
How long does the battery last in each?
Both models deliver approximately 3000 hours of battery life per charge, whether you run a single 9V cell or stack cells up to 27V for increased headroom.
