The truth is - I don't play the Les Paul anymore.
I can't get rid of it because of sentimental reasons - I know that sounds corny but that guitar cost me just under £300 back in the 70's, it was on the road with me for years as my only guitar and paid for itself many times over.
People still remember me playing that guitar 30 years ago and still comment on it.
I have many fond memories of that guitar but I've moved on.
But I'll never lose my love of Koss.

Quite understand.......haven't played my SS in years, but would never part with it.....5 years around the world & loads of dosh earned.......was just enquiring why a JP would sound more like PK than the actual guitar he used?
Anyway, we're wandering again......so let's get back to those lovely MM90s

good point - and I guess that the JP is as close as I'm gonna get to the LP soundwise.
Strange that Koss gravitated towards the single coil goodness of the Strat at the end.

well, I just received my used lefty ASS MM90 and oh my. These are some killer sounding pickups. I am thinking of selling my strat. I like the single coil sound of these better. Just can't say enough

I will post pics tomorrow of the ASS MM90 and JP6 I just got. Man, now I need more guitars with MM90s. It never stops.

I have one question, does the trem on the ASS make it considerably brighter?

I have found the trem makes the MM90 ASS a little twangier and brighter, the hardtail has more punch, but that may have just been the ones Ive had.

Out of interest, who makes the MM90s? Is it actually MM, or are they a re-badged pickup from somewhere else?

Pretty sure the MM90'ds are built in house by EBMM.
EBMM, when I was there for the Open House, I saw some workers doing the windings.
