Frequently asked questions

Is there any tonal difference between Black and Cream?

No. Both feature the same 11.86 kΩ resistance, 5.1 kHz peak frequency, ceramic magnets, and vacuum wax potting. Color is purely cosmetic.

What is RWRP and why does the Cream mention it?

RWRP (reverse wind reverse polarity) allows the Cream model to cancel hum when paired with a humbucker in the opposite position. This is useful for mixed-pickup configurations; the Black model does not specify this feature.

Which is better for blues and rock?

Both are equally suited to blues, hard rock, and indie. The punchy midrange and high output work identically on either model.

Will these fit my Gibson P90 guitar?

Yes. Both are .585" height and drop directly into Gibson-sized P90 soapbar routes without modification. Braided hookup cable is included.
