Product Details

Now available in a Dogear version, the DC-90TM is a hum-cancelling pickup designed to share many of the tonal characteristics of our '50s Wind P-90. For players who want a midrange-forward, articulate pickup that can produce the snap and growl of a P-90—without the 60-cycle hum and noise common with single-coil pickups—the DC-90 fits the bill.

Avg. DC: Neck 11K, Bridge 12.3K (Read about DC resistance)
Recommended Capacitor: 0.022μF
Recommended Potentiometers: 250K or 500K Either 250K or 500K pots work well. 250K will give a warmer tone.

Frequently Asked Questions

What values of potentiometers and capacitors do you recommend for DC-90 pickups?
There are no hard and fast rules regarding either pots or caps but most P-90-equipped guitars will have 500k pots and 0.047μF caps. These values will work well with your DC-90s, but if you'd like a slightly warmer tone, we recommend using 250k pots. You can read more about how different pot and cap values affect tone in this two-part blog post: Part I - Pots, Part II - Caps.

How far from my strings should I set my DC-90 pickups?
We advise customers to start with 1/8” between their pickups and guitar strings with the strings fretted at the last fret. This is just a good starting point, but you can raise your pickups to increase volume, or lower them to decrease volume. Check out Jason Lollar’s video on Adjusting Your Pickups.
