I'm looking online at a lap steel that has a Gibson P-13 pickup. Anyone have any experience with these pickups? Are they dark sounding like a P-90? _________________ "Don't be mad honey, but I bought another one" |

My prewar Kalamazoo KEH had a P-13 pickup that was much brighter than the P-90s on a blue Century 6. |

I agree. Very clear and wonderful pickup. Wish I still had my silver tone with that pickup. _________________ Excel D10 8&4, Supro 8, Regal resonator, Peavey Powerslide, homemade lap 12(a work in progress) |

Kinda looks like the "Speed Bump" pickups on my favorite Kay! They sound great!
