i like the tone of my p90 neck pickup with the volume pot at say 3/4, rather than full volume.
Whys that sound different from having the pickup a little lower from the strings. What happens? Seems to be some compression added when the volume pots not fully open maybe?
cheers!

To my ears it's like they are very full sounding but have eq notches just in the right places to always keep great string separation. I'm guessing they are wound asymmetrically and some other tricks ?

Mr. Duncan designed the original Custom. Members of the Seymour Duncan User Group forum experimented with magnet swaps. Demand grew sufficiently to justify putting the most popular swap mods into production.

Hope this helps :-)

I totally agree about alnico 5 for downtuning ... and a Mighty 90 alnico 5 is a serious 'doom beast' in the right hands/rig. It's a P90 however, so don't expect it to be noiseless!

Several possible contenders here, but my Creature should get you close to that tone.

Are you familiar with the humbuckers from Hofner T4s from 79ish? Do you happen to know what wind, magnet and output they are and hence anything in your range that comes close?
