Crackpot_Raptor Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 So the only guitars I've ever seen dual bridge P90s on are Matt's guitars, and I was wondering, if anyone's made a replica, or played a manson that had this setup, what does it sound like? I've been curious for a while, and I haven't been able to find any info on it. Does it sound kinda like a humbucker? Or does Matt just use one at a time? Any info is much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave. Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 James90 has a guitar with two P90s as does musecasters if he has rebuilt his one. Both of them should be able to give you a decent review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave. Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Oh cool I'll look up their build threads then James' is an actual Manson so their won't be a build thread for him but they will be for musecasters. I think it's the mirror kaoss build. A quicker way is to private message one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 And what about James' orange Stark? It's got them too Nah that one doesn't have the dual P90s. Only the stealth and mirror E shape. As for the sound, I have mine wired on a 3 way switch, so there are 3 different sounds. Bridge facing P90 only - does exactly what it says. Series - this basically functions as one massive humbucker. Sounds huge, but to be honest, it loses a bit of attack. Works well with distortion, not so well with clean. While it basically acts as a humbucker, it does sound a bit different from the 'traditional' type. MUCH more lower mids, and not a lot of high end. Parallel - I use this setting the least. Think of a 2 pickup guitar (like a les paul) in the middle position, but with a bit less low end because of the placement of the back pickup. Still nice to have the option though. As far as I know, Matt has his wired for two settings... bridge facing only and series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
