rwinking Posted Friday at 03:25 AM Posted Friday at 03:25 AM So I pulled out my trusty H-137 and as usual was blown away by how cool it sounds and plays.....just the right amount of twang and grit coming from the P90s. What did Heritage use for the stock pickups? Mine has an AA SN# which would put it around 2012? Did they use different pickups over the years? Like any great P90 they have a bit of hum but the sound is really cool.....real similar to my 58 LP JR P90 for sure!
TalismanRich Posted Friday at 04:01 AM Posted Friday at 04:01 AM All the original P90 Heritages that I'm aware of have Jason Lollar pickups. Unless it was a custom order, or the pickups were changed, those would likely be the stock ones. The control cover may even say the pickups. Check there. 2
rwinking Posted Friday at 07:54 PM Author Posted Friday at 07:54 PM Thanks! No wonder they sound so great!
bolero Posted Sunday at 02:22 AM Posted Sunday at 02:22 AM Yes was going to reply the same. Lollar makes great pickups! 1
rwinking Posted 11 hours ago Author Posted 11 hours ago I noticed that they have a really nice compression to them. I have a C&W gig tomorrow night and will use the H-137. It's a great guitar for grit but it can sound almost Tele like when used with a twin or deluxe.
DetroitBlues Posted 9 hours ago Posted 9 hours ago Typically (but not always!) the pickups installed are identified on the label. However this does inspire me to pull out my H137 tonight too. It's been neglected as of late.
