The Friedman Classic 90 Alnico V single-coil neck pickup channels the unmistakable bite and clarity of legendary vintage single-coils, with Dave Friedman's modern touch for extra punch and consistency.

This neck pickup lets you blend smooth cleans with just the right amount of raw edge when you dig in. Hand-built in the USA by Grover Jackson, it's engineered for dependable tone that shines in any mix.

Authentic P-90 Clarity With Modern Refinement

The Classic 90 pairs Alnico V magnets with a carefully wound coil measuring 8.6K ohms, giving you a robust, dynamic voice that balances chime and punch. Expect vintage single-coil sparkle with slightly more output and midrange push than a traditional Strat pickup. It's wax potted for feedback resistance, so you can crank your amp without squeal or excess hum. Whether you want glassy cleans or edgy breakup, the Classic 90 neck pickup keeps every note defined and responsive to your touch.

Versatile Single-Coil Tone, Built to Last

The Classic 90 is crafted for guitarists who crave timeless single-coil tone without unwanted noise. Its 90-style design fits most P-90 routes and pairs beautifully with the Classic 90 bridge pickup or your favorite humbucker for flexible, mix-cutting tones. Finished off with the same attention to detail found in every Friedman pickup, this neck-position powerhouse brings the soulful vibe of old-school rock straight to your modern rig, night after night.
