Porter P90's
The Porter P90's are a great recreation of the classic P90 Pickups. A P90 is basically a giant single coil with a similar number of turns as a regular humbucker and several thousand more than a traditional single coil pickup. What you get is a great unique sound due to the single wrap of wire and the magnetic field of the two magnets under the pickup.

Dog Ear Vs. Soap Bar-What's the Difference?
Soap bar pickups mount directly to the guitar body. Your pickup is not floating, its a part of the body. Some players prefer this tonally. Other guitars have "Dog Ear" style were the pickup has mounting holes on the side like a humbucker. The covers match the holes and have the "Ears" on the side. Dog ear pickups
