Hi. Names hank. I've played heavy blues and hard rock for about 35 years now and have pretty much always used humbuckers. I have, however, always loved the sound of a single coil in the neck. Never liked them in the bridge though. Anyways, I'd never really tried a P90 and recently ended up with a Yami 311b. Basically an alder bodied strat-style guitar with a hardtail, a P90 in the neck and a full-size humbucker in the bridge with a push\pull split on a 3 way. The stock humbucker was extremely weak so I tossed a tone zone in it I'd had lying around. The P90 sounds great!!! Not quite a strat but definitely satisfying the single coil neck vibe and it gets down and dirty! The real surprise was the tone zone in the bridge. I normally don't like single coils in the bridge , but when I split the coils on the tone zone, it sounded great
. Very straty but not at all shrill. The last surprise was the ridiculous amount of sustain this guitar has. Out does anything else I've got. Can't stop playing the damn thing now. Never in my wildest dreams would I have ever thought my go to strat would consist of a P90, a tone zone and a hardtail
Surely, their must be several strat purists turning over in their graves about now. But hey, it sounds
