TV Jones P-90 in Soapbar Mount
Known for their hot, rockabilly twangin’ pickups, TV Jones introduces their take on the classic soapbar P-90. These pickups crank out a sound that represents the traditional P-90, but with a classic TV Jones bite. They designed specific pickups for the neck and bridge positions. The bridge pup has thicker highs and more defined lows than what is commonly heard from other P-90s.

The neck offers clarity with fullness and is considerably less boomy than regular P-90s. Standard-sized alnico IV bar magnets are used in the neck position, contributing to its clarity and warmth. Larger pole screws are used on both neck and bridge models to help increase inductance. Both versions are available in Black and Cream.

MSRP $95 (one pickup)

For me the market is saturated. I look at these,at Schroeder, at LSL, and the other myriad of builders and ask , why? I guess they have done the market research, and certainly know it a lot better than me, but I just don't see the need for the more guitars like these.
