Having previously owned a gorgeous 1965 Gibson ES-125 TCD. Later on, after crafting my own Strat and Tele single-coils and humbuckers, I couldn't stop thinking about how incredible those old P90s sounded. I decided to channel that vintage Gibson magic and develop my own take on that iconic pickup design.
Strat and Tele single-coils are legendary, and humbuckers are equally impressive, – but for a lot of true experts in guitar industry, P90s are the undisputed champions.
The Hybrid Tone: P90s are single-coils, but they are wider and flatter than traditional Strat or Tele pickups. This gives them a rich, warm, and thick midrange comparable to a humbucker, while retaining the snap, bite, and harmonic clarity of a single-coil. Touch-
Sensitivity: Many experts agree that P90s are highly dynamic, responding instantly to your picking attack and pushing tube amplifiers into a legendary, gritty growl.
Legendary Lineage: P90s were Gibson's first great pickups, defining the sound of classic rock, punk, and blues
It was inevitable we’d design our version of P94 so that owners of humbucker equipped guitars would be able to seamlessly enjoy the greatness of P90s.
Prepare to lose yourself for hours the same as me, as you discover the fresh, inspiring tones of this exceptional P94 set.

These aren't pickups built to sit in a drawer with other unused pickups. They're built to stay in the guitar. Because once you've played them, once you've felt what that combination of vintage wire and hand-wound coils and proper magnets actually does to your tone, going back isn't really an option.

Great vintage pickups breathe. There is no other word for it. They open up and let the instrument speak, warm, full, dynamically honest. The warmth isn't just a frequency curve, it's a quality of harmonic presence that makes notes feel complete rather than skeletal. The fullness isn't about volume, it's about how the pickup captures the full spectrum of string vibration rather than just the fundamental and a few select overtones.
After a lot of testing and real study of how magnets behave over time and under string tension, the goal here was to recreate that quality: clear, immediate, expressive. Not a simulation of vintage tone but a faithful reconstruction of what actually made those pickups feel so alive.
When you play, you want the note to bloom the way it does when you hear a great acoustic guitar in a good room. That bloom, that sense of the sound expanding and then slowly decaying, that's what vintage tone means to us.
That's what we were after.

As the 0,050 mm (43AWG) wire is much thinner, making it easy to achieve extremely high DC resistance numbers. This allows more turns on a bobbin, greatly increasing output while maintaining a compact physical profile.
43 AWG — More output, stronger midrange, a harder edge. Cuts through a band mix. Works well with overdrive without getting woolly. The extra output means less chain noise and more direct signal, which matters when you're competing with drums and bass for sonic space. The midrange push means your guitar sits higher in the mix without getting harsh, and the harder edge means overdrive responds more consistently, the pickup drives the amp rather than getting lost in the noise floor. If you're playing rock, if you're playing in a band context, if you want your guitar to lead rather than support, this is worth trying.
It’s the best choice for creating "hot" pickups without sacrificing clarity.
This hotter design interacts beautifully with overdriven amplifiers and distortion pedals.

We paid significant attention to sound quality because we genuinely love the pickups of the past.
Here's the problem with cheap modern magnets. They provide harsh sounds and unappealing high-end frequencies. They don't let the strings vibrate freely or breathe. We use special order magnets that replicate the chemical metal fusion found in vintage pickups, manufactured at extra expense.
The right amount of wire on a coil is crucial. Modern pickups tend to overwind coils for greater output, but this reduces high-end clarity. Hotter pickups provide better response and make playing easier. But they have increased impedance which acts as a low-pass filter, reducing treble response and compressing your sound.
Vintage pickups have lower output because they have fewer turns of wire. That lower impedance produces a cleaner, more dynamic sound with greater touch sensitivity. This is the defining characteristic of vintage tone. This is the key to that magic you're searching for.
Kinetic Pickups produce output similar to antique models, offering authentic sound as close as possible while providing excellent playability.

Authentic 1950s Strat pickups are celebrated not only for their tone but for their incredible dynamic range and clarity.
Our designs emphasize articulation and responsiveness. Careful selection of magnets, winding patterns, and materials allows for exceptional string-to-string balance and expressive playing dynamics.
Kinetic Pickups are built for musicians who want their playing nuance to come through. They make you a better player simply by responding so honestly to what you do. Ideal for expressive, professional performance.

43AWG: Thinner wire that allows for more wraps in the same amount of space. This creates a higher output with a darker, punchier, and more mid-heavy profile.
