P90 pickups on Jackson JazzR

[Jacksonite]

Does anyone know anything about these pickups? they have the words Rio Grande stamped on the tortoise shell cover and the sound good, but I just dont know anything about them...
Sounds like a 59 but I just dont know enough to say 100%

Re: P90 pickups on Jackson JazzR

I THINK they´re using Rio Bluesbars or a Bluesbar/Jazzbar set, but I´m not 100% sure myself....

But they´re either Bluesbars, Jazzbars , or custom wound, because those are the only ones in a soapbar formfactor [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: P90 pickups on Jackson JazzR

And how do you change a link to say what you want?

Re: P90 pickups on Jackson JazzR

As far as I know, they have a good reputation and are rather dedicated to some 'elite', people who dont want to tread with others on the Duncan/DiMarzio/EMg/etc. way.

a link? type without the . [u.r.l.=link to whatever page]text that is visible on the thread[/u.r.l.]

Re: P90 pickups on Jackson JazzR

rio grande pickups fucking rule.

please don't expect the guitar to be a metal shred thing, though. love it for the bitchin guitar that it is.

Re: P90 pickups on Jackson JazzR

I'm wondering if those are replacements, since the Jackson site says the P90 model gets the Duncan SP90-3 Single and SP90-1 Vintage Single (singles in a P90 housing in a Jazz box - WTF!?!)

Re: P90 pickups on Jackson JazzR

it's probably stock, KE told me that they did a few of them different, and they played around with rio grandes for them.
