The Brickhouse BH-90 humbucker sized P-90 offers a big single-coil P-90 tone, with all of the power and grit. The highlight of these pickups is how they retain the clarity and top end dynamics of a single-coil, while avoiding the muddy or overly saturated sound of a humbucker. A standard single coil P-90 has amazing tone, but it's major drawback is the dreaded 60 cycle hum… Our BH-90s are perfectly quiet! This makes them really versatile for a range of genres, from blues and rock to country and jazz.
Best of all, these are humbucker sized to fit directly into any standard humbucker route! So if you're into trying something different from a standard humbucker, give these a spin. You will definitely be inspired by the open dynamics and harmonically rich tones of a P-90 without the noise. Say goodbye to hum and hello to a full and authentic vintage P-90 tone with the Brickhouse BH90!

Note:
The DCR reading is much higher than normal single coil P-90's due to the nature of their hum-canceling design. This is a case where DCR should not be considered as a measurement of output because these are equivalent in output to a vintage P-90 that ranged in DCR readings between 7-9k.
Well, it’s been five months since I ordered these noiseless hum bucker size P 90s and I have to say that of all the pick ups and guitars I have had over the years that I’ve used for live work and recording these pick ups are certainly some of the most unique sounding hum bucker sized P-90’s that I have ever used. I have been using them for recording extensively on some instrumental projects that come out of Arizona but I finally got to have the opportunity to play this guitar in a few live situation’s and these pick ups just do not disappoint. They sing like a bird, one playing single not lead lines And when turn down for a more crunchy rhythm sound, they are very clear and articulate. My hat goes off to Dave. He’s really are a very unique sounding set of pick ups. Many thanks, Rod Welles
I just recently acquired the BH90 pickup, and let me tell you, they’re doing it right over there. I’ve been on a bit of a search looking for the right p90 pup; went through a few of the big brands and even some more off the beaten path, but nothing compares to the clarity, harmonic content and ACTUAL P90 TONES of the Brickhouse. My search is over.
If you’re craving that true, organic p90 tone in a completely silent package, you’re in the right place.
I ordered these from Dave and they were shipped the next day! Got them in my USA PRS and used that guitar on a number of recordings from a project I was hired to do… They really have a snarly attitude P-90 thing and they’re highly dynamic and clean up nicely when turned down….
Well, time to tune up Bluey and back to work…. Oh, and these pickups are dead quiet. More so than some humbuckers I have
I contacted David about making me a custom replacement noiseless HB 90 for the stock (single-coil) neck HB 90 in my Sublime Tomcat Deluxe and he graciously agreed to do it. I sent a picture of the stock pickup and he was able to perfectly match the original look.
And for the sound, Oh.My.Word! Clear, punchy, loud, responsive and absolutely no noise! It sounds great on its own and blended with the Porter HB in the bridge. Even though it was a custom order, he delivered very quickly and kept me updated with its progress throughout the build process.
If you need a HB-sized P90, this should be your first and last stop. If you want something different than another vintage PAF, give these a spin.
When I ordered the Shep 90 humbucker sized hum-canceling pickup set, I knew I wanted something different. These are perfect. All the punch, growl, and bite of a regular P90, but No hum! Customer service was amazing. I needed the pickups aged, going in a 40 yr old guitar and the new covers just would look right. Contacted the company and David replied promptly with, yes, I can age them, no problem. When they arrived, I had a question about them, David promptly responded! Great sounding, thanks!!!
