Favorite neck P90?

[Rowan]

Whats your favorite p90 in the neck position? It doesn't have to be duncan! I'm in the market for a p90 with a pristine clean tone.

I recently had the oportunity to strum a Collings that has a set of Lollar P-90's and they sounded beautiful.

#1 The plain and simple Duncan Vintage p-90.

#2 The equally plain and simple Gibson p-90.

I could live with any of the previous suggestions but my money went on a pre-owned SD Antiquity on my Gibson and the stock Duncan Designed unit on my Squier Tele Custom II.

Having recently experimented with various stacked-coil imposters, I can vouch for the fact that single coil, modest output is the way to go.

I'm not the hugest P-90 user in the world and I know more about humbuckers than Strat singles and know more about Strat singles than P-90s. So P-90s aren't really up to par with my knowledge of other pickups. I think that might turn around soon though. P-90s have the perfect blend of fatness, clarity, and bite. It's like a humbucker and single wrapped into one. The perfect neck pickup for me.

Now that I'm done with that I really like the Gibson P-90s. I don't have any guitars with P-90s but I have played them. Not too many guitars come with the Duncans stock I think but dont quote me on that. I've played some P-90 Les Pauls, some Les Paul Juniors, and etc. from Gibson. Really wouldn't change the pickups but then again I never played it in my own rig so I can't really pass too much judgement.

For me to say I like a Gibson pickup its a stretch. They're my least favorite pickup manufacturer but I liked their P-90s. Odds are though I'd get some stacked Duncan P-90s. I don't want all that hum.

PRS (USA) soapbar models come with Duncan-sourced P-90s - albeit in an unexpected combination. I plan to "borrow" their idea for my Gibson LP Junior Special.

Are you refering to the approach using:
Neck: Vinatge Neck
Bridge: Custom Neck

I have Bridge vintage in the neck and Custom neck in the bridge

I dig it.

I'm a big fan of the DiMarzio Bluesbucker in the neck.

For the neck, a recent stock Gibson is 95% there...very good for the money since there are lots of pulls floating around.
