Re: mini humbucker

Yeah, but the devil is in the details. And you need a soapbar route, not a dogear.

You need the LP Deluxe style rings and they fit.

The problem is that P-90ties vary in size.

Re: mini humbucker

If you have a dog ear P-90 pup, it is a top mount, meaning you have 2 screw holes on the top of your guitar where it is mounted.
GFS web site shows that their mini's come with a mounting ring that looks like it mounts to the top of the guitar w/4 mounting screws.
You just need to get the mounting ring measurements from GFS and determine if the GFS ring is big enough to cover the P-90 holes. If the GFS Ring doesn't cover the P-90 holes it'll look like S**t.
Good luck.
