Sound & Video
There are a few ways to cancel out the hum in a pickup. Some manufacturers feature a “stacked” coil design, which we believe leads to a lifeless and dull tone that lacks character. Lindy’s Hum Cancelling P90 features a Side-by-side coil design that is not stacked and attains a more accurate P90 tone that actually sounds like a P90.
Expect a vintage-voiced P90 tone, with a slightly thicker midrange and rounder highs. This pickup will undoubtedly push your amp hard and provide that snarly midrange and top-end “bark” we have come to expect from a P90. Suitable for many music styles, this pickup can scream and clean up nicely for jazz or blues.
Going even further, you can customize your tone by selecting Overwound and Underwound options. By overwinding a pickup, the tone gets thicker, darker, and dirtier. By underwinding a pickup, the pickup gets clearer and more articulate.
Our manufacturing process allows us to achieve unparalleled quality control.
Hum-Cancelling P90s consists of 100% USA-Made parts, including a precision injection mold, USA-Made Steel Screws, and Neodymium magnets. We use aggressive USA-Made Neodymium magnets to make this model scream. Each bobbin is carefully inspected and cleaned before winding.
We wind each pickup by hand, one at a time, using our proprietary “Sectioning” technique, which gives the pickup a sweet, clear tone. Finally, we wax-pot the pickup to prevent microphonics and preserve the pickup for years to come.

Here's how we wind and magnetize our pickups:
If you're buying a set from us, all pickups will work together seamlessly. If you're buying a single pickup, all you need to worry about is Coil Direction.
To ensure your pickup will work, make sure you select multiple leads (2-Conductor, 3-Conductor, or 4-Conductor if available), or the 3-Wire modification so you can reverse the coil direction, if need be.

These pickups have a great growl – deep, rich, resonant. I couldn’t be happier with them. Great pickups, great organization, great people.
-
Not a P90 expert by any means, but these sound great. I got a neck pickup with 5% under-wind, intended mostly for clean play that I usually use a Fender guitar for. It sounds just chimey and jangly enough to be used for something I would normally use a Fender style single coil for, like country, jazz, or clean rock, it just sounds warmer with a lot more bass and mids. In the middle position with a humbucker in the bridge, it sounds brighter, and if you turn up treble and turn down bass and mids on your amp, it’s just bright enough for rhythm funk. In short, it can do anything clean, but it also works with fuzz, overdrive, and even heavier distortion. Completely hum-cancelling, I can only hear the slightest noise when I have gain and volume at max on my distortion pedal, which makes the actual guitar deafening. 10/10 would recommend from a Fender fan boy in search of something warmer.
