Rio Grande Pickups Unveils Expanded P90® Pickup Resource

Rio Grande Declares Independence with Drop-In, No Modification, P90® Pickup Power for Every Player and Every Guitar

HOUSTON, TX — July 2, 2025 — (GUITAR pr) — You ever tried putting a P-90 in a guitar it wasn’t built for? It’s like fitting brisket in a breakfast taco — takes some finesse, but when it works, it’s magic. That’s the thinking behind Rio Grande Pickups’ expanded P-90® Pickup Resource — a bold lineup of drop-in-ready pickups that serve up the bite, the growl, and the fit, without cutting corners or wood.

“This is about freedom — tone freedom and installation freedom,” said Jack Brandt, of Rio Grande Pickups. “Our goal is to give players what they actually need — real options that sound great and fit right, right out of the box.”

Whether you’re packing a Strat®, Tele®, Les Paul®, Jaguar®, or something in between, Rio Grande’s expanded offering helps players lock in the tone they crave — without the usual hassle of modification.

Not Just P-90s — P-90 Thinking

This collection is about solutions, not just specs:

• True P-90s: Classic single coils in a range of outputs (Lowbar, Jazzbar, Bluesbar) for soapbar or dogear guitars — straight-up flavor with no extra sauce.
• Humbucker-Sized P-90s: Like the Bastards and Dirty Harry P90 Humbucker — drop-in single coils for humbucker routes with zero compromise.
• Mini-Size Variants: The “Baby” line brings that same Texas tone to mini-humbucker guitars.
• The Dirty Harry Line: P-90-inspired sound in Tele, Strat, and Jaguar routes — smoky, gutsy, and ready to punch through the mix.

And here’s the kicker: some of these pickups aren’t P-90s at all — they’re full-blown humbuckers, purpose-built to fit P-90 cavities and deliver bigger output or hum-free performance. Others reshape classic P-90 flavor for oddball guitars that normally get left out of the fun.

You’ll even find true originals like the Dirty Harry P90 Humbucker — a humbucking pickup built from two P-90s wired together. That’s not something you’ll find on the menu anywhere else.

Built to Fit. Designed to Sing.

Rio Grande’s P-90 Resource isn’t just a parts list. It’s a one-stop smokehouse for tone — handcrafted, time-tested, and built with the company’s signature blend of heat and soul. Whether you’re after vintage-style bark, smooth cleans, or a high-gain snarl, Rio Grande’s got you covered — with no routing, no guesswork, and no flavorless tone.
