Spectrum13 Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Calling our Kuz, Just looked over Jason Lollar's site at the shims to retro fit a dogear into a humbucker. The oversize "conversion" shim is 1/32 high and Jason makes the "short" P-90 which is 0.2" high to fit a 535 neck. So can you convert any 535 or 555 into a H535 P-90 or is the 0.2" plus 1/32 stack so tall you needed the custom fit? Should we assume you got Jason's the 50's wind copies off Sean's 53 Goldtop?
tulk1 Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Jason also told me he makes a Hum-sized P90, but doesn't put it on the site. You have to call him personally to get a set.
Gitfiddler Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Seymour Duncan makes Phat Cats (P90s) that fit into a standard humbucker route with no mods. Just another suggestion.

Kuz Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Sorry, so late in responding. 1. My 535 p-90 First production guitar was MADE for dog-ear p-90s and not retro-fitted a humbucker for a p-90. It was made for p-90s first. 2. I don't know if a guitar fitted for Humbuckers can be retro fitted for p-90s or not but I would google "lollar pickups" and speak to the man himself. 3. I would strongly suggest getting the real deal (lollar p-90s) if you can over Phat cat pickups. This is just my opinion if you want the real p-90 sound. Phat cats are a very good alternative, but they are an alternative and have their own tone.
