Found my answer to his pickups that I thought were P90s. Actually, somebody had to tell me. . .

Re: Jimmy Herring
There are tons of videos of Jimmy himself going into great detail about his gear. Head over to YouTube and start looking.
Also, check out Jude Gold's podcast No Guitar is Safe. If you're unfamiliar with Jude, he's worked at Guitar Player for something like 15 years, and his podcast is like a live action version of a GP interview. There's lots of talk, and lots of killer playing. He did an episode with Jimmy Herring awhile back that's a must listen for fans.

Re: Jimmy Herring
Here's an old one where he's still mainly using a couple Fenders, but it's worth a watch.

Re: Jimmy Herring
I thought he was using Lollar Imperials.

Re: Jimmy Herring
he uses lollars in some guitars but hes been using prs with their own pups a lot too, the nf3 for example. for years his main guitar was a fender strat with a pair of 59's, two volumes and master tone. sounded fantastic. still sounds fantastic regardless of what he uses

Re: Jimmy Herring
Definitely one of the best examples of the player transcending the gear. If I wasn’t watching, I probably wouldn’t be able to tell which one he was using. Michael Landau and Eric Johnson are like that. I heard Scott Henderson say he was listening to Landau, jealous of his perfect Strat tone. Turned out to be a Les Paul.
