Kent Armstrong® Custom Series Stealth 90 Noiseless P-90 Pickups
This new revolutionary design gives the sweet, warm chime and tone of the original P-90 pickup without all that annoying 60 cycle hum. Read the forums on this HP-90 pickup and don't let the high resistance fool you. Making its debut at the 2012 summer NAMM show, this design uses the hum-cancelling properties of opposing coils but defies the normal high output that would accompany similar resistance designs. Available in both bridge and neck positions so you can create a proper calibrated set and in black and cream plastic as well as real metal covers in black, chrome, gold and nickel plating! If you love P-90s and want to forget about not being able to use your favorite guitar because of lighting and power issues you simply have to get into a set of new Stealth 90 pickups.
Recommended wiring includes using a 500K Ohm pot for volume, 250K Ohm pot for tone and a .022 capacitor as these are humbucking pickup designs. The 250K pot for tone will give a smoother, less abrupt tone sweep versus a 500K.

Review By Bordentown Guitar Rescue
Quiet and loud at the same time - both in a good way!
We recently used these pickups in a Jazzmaster build (yes, the pickups can fit snug underneath a typical Jazzmaster cover - with a little massaging of course!) and they fit the requirements perfectly! The goal was to have a noiseless P90 tone without making major modifications to the existing guitar, and these pickups did not fail to impress. They growl in full volumes, clean up in lower, and never make a noise not desired. We will be using these again for sure!
