Love the P90 sound!
I have a semi-hollow Gibson Les Paul with a flat maple top and single F hole. Beautiful guitar and plays really well, but I never liked the sound from the factory humbuckers. I have many guitars, including a Gibson SG with P90s and was always playing it at band practices because it sounded so good. Better than all my humbucker guitars. I figured someone must make a P90 that fits a humbucker slot and found the Phat Cat set. I had a luthier install them and they sound great! Totally improved the sound of the guitar and now I play the Les Paul at practice. I liked them so much I just had another pair installed in my Epiphone Dot and again, the guitar sounds so much better! Totally recommend these if you want the P90 sound from a guitar made for humbuckers, and/ or if you want to improve the sound of a less expensive guitar like the Epiphone Dot.

Spanky, clear sound with plenty of output -- not as noisy as standard single coils
My Gibson SG Standard has come back to life! After playing in a harder rock outfit, I wanted my SG for more old school Pete Townshend stuff. Even after buying a remade Sound City Amp it just wasn't doing it for me. What was missing? The P90s of course! I couldn't part with my SG Standard (which IMHO are much better guitars than the SG Specials), so I opted to get the Phat Cats. Had my local luthier install them and WOW! CRAAAANNG! That was the sound I was looking for. Someday I'll have to plug this into a real 100w HIWATT just for fun, but even out of my 20 watt SC they sound great. Way to go Seymour Duncan!

They are worth the money and easy to install. Seymore his self has YouTube videos on how to do this.
If you want p-90 sound in your Les Paul these will do that. No routing needed changing from humbuckers to these.Just assemble the pickup frame and run the wires to the solder point and add the wood mounting screws, solder connections.Now, Play really loud, and really clean. Plus these pickups loves the tube screamer peddle.No more muddy tones from my factory pick ups.As a friend said, “Clean as a piano, or testicular if needed.”

Sound is thicker with a solid tone. Better than stock Gibson P90’s
Definitely can recommend these for those looking for more punch and thicker overall tone. Great upgrade for any Gibson or even an Epiphone with humbuckers

Awesome pickups! Buy them!
These pickups turned a guitar I was going to sell, primarily because I couldn't find that P90 sound I get from my actual P90 guitars. These sound better than any of those guitars now! If you like that Social D sound, it is in reach with these. My rig is a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe with a Joyo Ultimate Drive. I installed these in a D'angelico SD. Feedback and hum is there, but we'll handed with the use of a noise gate. Seriously though, it's not needed. Have no fear, buy them.....do it... NOW!

YEAAAH BOIIIII
sound great in a gibson sg fusion. Keep in mind, you will only be able to tell a significant change in tone quality through a quality amp. They sounded like a million bucks on a marshall stack at guitar center. But at home in a tini behringer tube amp they dont sound special until the volume is cranked. Would reccomend if you have equally as high quality amplification

Amazing Tones!
These things changed everything... Great tones, good old blues/rock with some dirt on there! If that sounds familiar, what you like, etc. you won't be disappointed.

A guitar I hardly touched is now my favorite.
I installed these in my 2015 Gibson Les Paul Studio and they are just amazing. It took a little soldering work and some Gibson Quick Connect adaptors, because my guitar has a circuit board, but it all worked out and I’m in love with the sound. They came with black frames and fit perfectly into the humbucker slots on the guitar.
