Phat Cat - Bridge - Nickel - Electric Guitar Pickup

The Phat Cat is a genuine single-coil P90 Soapbar designed to fit under a humbucker cover for installation in guitars equipped with humbuckers. It was initially created in the Custom Shop for Hamer Guitars, but eventually demand grew significantly, leading to its move to standard production. The Phat Cats provide all the authentic grit and growl anticipated from a classic vintage P90 Soapbar in the bridge position, and deliver the true P90 bounce and sparkle in the neck position. Chords feature bright, ringing harmonic overtones, while solos possess that classic P90 cut and edge.

Two Alnico 2 bar magnets are utilized to offer increased sustain and a compressed attack, while the metal covers provide enhanced shielding and noise reduction compared to standard soapbar covers. Additional features consist of a nickel silver bottom plate, single-conductor braided hookup wire, and vacuum wax potting for operation free of squeal. The neck model is RW/RP (reverse wind, reverse polarity) relative to the bridge pickup to ensure noiseless performance when used in combination. Handcrafted in Santa Barbara, California, these products are made to produce the most incredible sound achievable.

This begins with an environment that attracts and maintains an excellent team of engineers, product designers, and artisans, many of whom have been with the company for decades.
