McNelly JM90 Jazzmaster P90 Pickups

Once you place your order here, I will personally handle the order with McNelly Pickups and let you know when the pickup is made and making it's way to me. Once it is here, I personally inspect the pickup and prepare it for dispatch (or collection) for you.

This set is based on McNelly’s standard P90s, but made to install under Jazzmaster covers. You'll have increased output and fatter tone than a typical JM, plus the lovely neck/bridge balance that the McNelly P90s are known for. The McNelly P90 Soapbar is one of the most popular models, used by guitar makers and individual players around the world. If you fancy some P90 sound instead in your JM, this is a fantastic place to do so.

Recommended wiring
We recommend pairing the JM90 with 500k pots and 0.022uF caps, as they are essentially P90 based pickups, not Jazzmaster single coils.
Installation
These pickups are traditional/vintage Jazzmaster single coil sizing. They are wired with hot and ground separate 22awg cloth covered wire as standard. If by chance you aren't comfortable installing these pickups yourself, and are local to the Home of Tone, then I offer professional in-house installation. If you are installing them yourself, then I am of course here for any installation advise too.
Cover Options
McNelly pickups are listed individually, so simply add the neck and/or bridge pickup in the cover option you wish, to the cart. The full range of cover options are visible via the drop down menu.

This video shows regular soapbar sized P90s, but they are the same spec/construction as the JM90 model.

About McNelly
One of my first wishes about setting up my store was to concentrate on quality. McNelly couldn't fulfill that wish any better. I've worked with McNelly Pickups since 2015, and has been one of the most reliable, consistent, innovative and inspiring suppliers to work with and it's an honour to represent such a quality brand here in the UK.
Made by Tim McNelly and his team in Canada, every single pickup is created with the utmost passion for their craft. From the design process to refining tone detail, unique and timeless aesthetics to the finest build quality you'd hope to see.
Every detail is considered by Tim to ensure their pickups are the finest they possibly could be. From material and part selection, to care and workmanship during the winding and making process. The result is tone that speaks for itself.
What's included with the pickup?
Inside the box you'll find the pickup(s) you have ordered, along with your mounting screws/fixings.
Custom options?
If you love the look of this pickup model, but the standard options don't quite suit your requirements then we can certainly help with that.
As McNelly Pickups are primarily made to order, we can usually cater for custom requirements happily.
Need a humbucker with 4 conductor cable for custom switching? No problem
Need a wide spaced bridge pickup? No problem
If you have a custom, non standard request, please contact me prior to placing your order and we can chat about your requirements and see about making it happen for you - james@homeoftone.co.uk
