These Phat Cats are a seriously fun upgrade for guitars needing a bit more grit. They’ve got that classic P-90 bite, but with a noticeable punch thanks to the Alnico II magnets and slightly higher output. Perfect for blues, rock, and anything needing a little extra attitude without going full distortion.

Frequently Asked Questions
They’re noticeably hotter than vintage P-90s, offering more midrange and sustain, but still retain that characteristic P-90 growl.
The 'Great' P-90 shape is wider than a standard P-90, so it *might* require minor routing or pickup ring adjustments in a humbucker cavity.
The nickel covers are a nickel-plated finish – it gives that classic look, but it’s not solid nickel construction.
