Butah-90!

The itching continues; I just have to try the Butah with a single coil variation- the P-90 pickup. So the Edwards was out to address this. As expected, the Butah very much preserves the P-90 fatness, layering the drive voicing on top of the inherent tonal character. Unlike the Strat-type single coil, there's added bottom end here so messing with the EQ was inevitable.

the P-90 tone is an in-between tone, single coil but with added humbucking fatness. i love this variation in clean & driven modes. in the neck position, the clean tones are very jazz inclined in terms of voicing preference.
