What players and reviewers say
On the Seymour Duncan Phat Cat (SPH90-1)
“I am loving the Phat Cat in the neck of my warmoth tele (semi-hollow mahogany body, ebony LP scale neck), and I'm looking for a bridge pickup thats just as fat sounding.”
“Too me, the Phat Cat has more mids than the jazz, and its covers more frequency from lows to highs.”
