I agree on everything else except the woman part of that. I think it is better to find one that does one thing really well and it ain't the laundry or the dishes. Well it looks like they concentrated on the P-90 part of the equation first. In other words, this looks like a P-90 with the option of the other two sounds thrown in as a bonus. In my past experiences with things like this, the other two will suffer at the expense of the main attraction. But if you are mainly a P-90 player, the other options might be better than no options and the combinations of 2 pickups like this may add a lot of tonal variety. I went to get Lasik surgery on my "bad" eye once. The doctor told me that the eye was so bad that he would have to do another type of surgery with a knife/blade first before he could even do the Lasik part. When I asked him if he thought that all of that surgery would help he said, "Well, you're kind of a one eyed guy anyway." So I guess, if you are a P-90 guy anyway, what have you got to loose? --Previous Message-- : Perhaps this needs to be filed under the : "too good to be true" category? : You know the saying...if it sounds like it : is, then it probably is.
