“The sound I was going for was a neck pickup that did this buttery, glassy with girth tone, and the bridge pickup would do this honky girthsome thing”, says Koch about the new pickups.
Koch, a guitar players guitarist, who worked with Fishman on the Signature Gristle-Tone pickup set for Telecasters has again, left his mark on these pickups. The set includes two pickups, one bridge and one neck pickup, which can be powered by a 9V battery or Fishman’s own rechargeable battery packs.
The Gristle-Tone P90 set adds three switchable tones for both the bridge and neck pickups. The neck has an under-wound tone that is similar to a regular P90, a fat over-wound tone and a clear, open single coil tone while the bridge has a vintage P90 setting, muscular tone of an over-wound P90 and a bright, jangly single coil tone.
These adjustments are there to help you get a more focused sound through tone selection and noise reduction. Now pushing a P90 through distortion/compression effects pedals will not result in an overly buzzy or noisy sound character.
The Greg Koch Gristle-Tone Signature P90’s are available in both black and cream finishes.
Check out this video below with Greg Koch showing off some of the aforementioned tones.
