Seymour Duncan P90 Silencer Soapbar Vintage Black Pickup Set
The P90 Silencer delivers classic P90 tone without the hum that traditionally plagues this pickup design. These soapbar units sit flush in standard P90 routes, offering vintage output character with modern noise-cancelling engineering—essential for gigging musicians who want authentic P90 response in live and studio settings.
Tone & Electronics
Built with ceramic bar magnets and matched DC resistance specs (neck: 9.74 kΩ, bridge: 10.23 kΩ), these pickups produce the warm, woody midrange and articulate highs associated with vintage P90 voicing. The hum cancelling design eliminates 60-cycle noise without sacrificing the sonic character that makes P90s desirable on stage and in the studio.
Installation & Compatibility
This set of 2 pickups (neck and bridge) functions as a drop-in replacement for standard P90 routes, requiring no modification to existing cavities. Each unit features a two conductor cable for straightforward wiring into existing harnesses—no downtime before your next gig.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do these pickups fit my guitar without routing?
Yes. The Silencer soapbars are drop-in replacements for any standard P90 route and require zero modification to your guitar's cavities. They come with two-conductor cables ready to wire into your existing harness.
Will these pickups work in metal or high-gain styles?
These pickups are optimized for blues, rock, jazz, indie, and home recording and are not recommended for metal or djent applications where higher output and extreme gain stacking are expected.
What makes the hum cancelling different from a standard P90?
The Silencer uses modern noise-cancelling engineering to eliminate 60-cycle hum while preserving the warm midrange, woody character, and articulate highs that define classic P90 voicing—so you get vintage tone without the noise.
What is included in this set?
The set includes two pickups (neck and bridge), each with ceramic bar magnets, matched DC resistance specs (9.74 kΩ neck, 10.23 kΩ bridge), and two-conductor cables for wiring.
How do these compare to other P90 options?
The Silencer balances vintage P90 output with hum cancellation at a budget-friendly price point. The comparable Gibson Original P90 and Lollar Imperial P90 offer traditional voicing without noise reduction; the Seymour Duncan P90 Custom is a higher-output alternative in the same product family.
