Crunch- P90. They just handle that overdrive sounds so well. Clean- Filter’tron. They have an amazing clean tone. Distortion- Mini Humbucker. They killed it for me in this category. So much oomf. Idea for a similar vid: Jazzmaster pickups, Firebird pickups, JM P90 from Lollar or Novak and the JM 180 from Novak. Or anything else with the Jazzmaster and Firebird pickups they’re just so unique and I think a lot of people don’t know that.

Bought my first P90 guitar in 1972 (used 62 SG) and loved it. It was my first real guitar but I did not know what I had until playing in bands w/other members playing humbuckers. Amps and guitars in those days could really produce 60 hz hum...so I was envious of quiet humbuckers, but the P90s killed it on tone! The P90s could also squelch the hum by using middle position. (provided both volume knobs were at the same setting). P90s have earned my respect for decades!

I only started playing like 3.5 yrs ago. I always made sure I'd get a humbucker, since I wanted to learn metal riffs to get started. I'm hooked on the P90 sound. So much diversity. I still love humbuckers more than life itself, but if I'm looking to be creative, I prefer the P90s. Fender Tele Deluxe (HH) Fender American Performer (HSS) Epiphone ES-339 (generic alnico humbuckers) Gibson ES-339 ('57 humbuckers) Fender 'Noventa' Strat (2 P90's)

@@BaconatorJames Over the decades, I have switched fovorites so many times. But always after playing humbuckers for any length of time, the p90 seems so powerful and gutsy, and nothing spanky like a strat. Just a great sound to have on hand when I want it. Love the idea of 339s! I have a 335 and they are just too large for me. Still shopping 339s!!! I will find one eventually!

The SD SM-1 in the D'Angelico is actually a Firebird pickup. Those are different than mini-humbuckers. They're the same size but they're constructed differently. They both sound and feel different. I just wanted to point that out because if one of your viewers liked the sound of the D'Angelico and decided they wanted to look for a mini-humbucker, they would be looking for the wrong type of pickup.

Thanks for adding the mini-humbucker information to the mix. I love how the mini-humbuckers drove the amp, especially during distortion. They were SO CLOSE to sounding as good as the T.V. Jones'. But, I have to give the nod to the TV Jones' FilterTrons! This might just be sound-infatuation, but, I think true FilterTrons (and is that a loaded statement or what?) 'take the cake', so to speak, for overall performance -- power, balance, tone-separation, clarity, and tonal quality -- in this sort-of "other' category of pickups you reviewed. Nice work Darrell!

I think my favorite all around sounding was the mini hum buckers. However they were also less of a different flavor than my strat single coil and PRS humbucker. So for me, for adding a different flavor to my small collection, it would be the P90s. By the way, love how much more your sharing your observations in this and more recent times vs the much older approach of there you have it decide for yourself what you like. Your impressions and observations are value add to us less experienced players with much smaller collections.

Thanks very much for this comparison, Darrel. I'm just a beginner, but I really like the brightness of the P90 pickups. The two humbucker pickups sounded almost muddy in comparison. Yours in humility, Jim

Didn’t know mini humbuckers will turn out to be so bright and clear. For me, it’s the mini humbuckers that impressed me a lot

I've got an old Les Paul Deluxe with them, they're a very particular sound. I find them closer to fender style single coils than the PAFs or P90s like you usually find on a Gibby but with their own percilular bite. Gary Moore used them extensively with Thin Lizzy.

That's not a mini-humbucker. The SM-1B is a Firebird pickup.

@@JELIFISH19 A Firebird pickup IS a mini-humbucker. Gibson made 2 distinct mini-humbuckers--ones with pole pieces and ones without. They were two different designs but both were mini-humbuckers.

@@meatwad1 They're completely different designs. A mini-humbucker shares the same design as a normal-sized humbucker, it's just smaller. A Firebird pickup uses a completely different construction which yields a different sound. It has nothing to do with visible polepieces. The SM-2 and SM-3 aren't Firebird pickups even though they look identical to the SM-1. And some of the pickups that Gibson has put into Firebirds have been mini-humbuckers with covered polepieces. The OP commented on the brightness and clarity of that pickup. But much of that is attributed to it being a Firebird pickup.

@@meatwad1 Minihums are made like humbuckers, just mini. Firebird pickups are 2 rails, each in a bobbin, wrapped in wire. Same foot print, vastly different design and sound.

Huh, that was really interesting and the differences were more noticeable than I thought they would be. Kind of surprised, but I dig the Filtertrons the best. Great job! 👍

Good demo. Fairly comprehensive without being too long. I would have like to hear the mini-hums in the neck position. My fave was the filtertron.

Well personally I've always loved the sounds of a Mini hum bucker, although p90s to my ear sounds close, but I'd like to have at least 1 guitar with each of the four version
