Those who aren't familiar with the Kinman mod, it's a treble bleed plus change mod designed for Strat or Tele singles that's dirt simple easy. A .001 uf cap in series with a 130k resistor across the two non-ground lugs of the volume pot(s). (Doesn't seem to matter which order the cap and resistor are in either, though to be on the safe side, I'll say your mileage may vary.)
But it is just killer on P90's and buckers. It works especially well with a 500k pot. The most killer feature is that in rolling the volume back from 10 to 8 or even 9, the pickup has an amazing woody/vintage tone, especially if it's a bit overwound. It really sounds like you're dialing down from Alnico 5 to A2 and taking away about 0.5k.
This is much better than even Spin-A-Split and light years better than coil splitting. Vintage to modern or vice versa with just the tweak of the volume. How do you top that?
