Incredible tonal range from split-coil P-90 Soapbar pickupsThe Gibson Music City Jr. with B-Bender is fitted with two split-coil P-90 Soapbar humbucking pickups, with push/pull coil taps on the volume knobs to switch between humbucking and single-coil operation. Gibson's first successful single-coil pickup, the P-90, can be heard on countless classic recordings. With its biting treble and high output, the P-90 cleans up nicely when you roll back your guitar's volume pot. And when you hit your amp hard, the P-90 really wails. It's an amazingly versatile pickup, perfect for rock, country, blues, or virtually any genre.
'60s SlimTaper neck profile plays fast and smoothThis Music City Jr. with B-Bender sports a comfortable, fast-action neck with a '60s SlimTaper profile. Early Gibson guitars had huge, often ungainly necks. By 1960, Gibson had gradually carved down this profile into what became their SlimTaper neck. As your fingers moved down this neck, the precisely controlled width-to-thickness ratio of the Music City Jr. with B-Bender's SlimTaper neck provides you with a consistent, fast, and comfortable feel. It's no wonder many life-long guitar players consider the SlimTaper Gibson's finest neck.
