Bare Knuckle Pig 90 - bridge model in an all mahogany lp. Absolutely huge sounding. It's a bit loose on high gain without a boost but I kinda like that in a p90 for the stoner rock type stuff I tend to play. Real fat tones. Tim installed it with a tap which worked for lower gain stuff.
Bare Knuckle Mississippi Queen - had this in the neck of the same guitars, possibly my favourite neck pickup though a little muddy on lower strings/notes. Fat, decent output, great for bluesy lead tones. I'd like to have tried the bridge one as well.
Had both these in my sg as well and they worked well.
Axesrus Late 50s - neck model in my sg. Not quite as good as the MQ - not as fat or ballsy but therefore not as muddy on the lower strings.
Overall the MQ was my favourite. I've got some clips of them I'll try and find later to give you an idea of the different tones you can get with use of the volume knob.
i had a Kent Armstrong one too that was pretty good, and dirt cheap.
I’m so bored I might as well be listening to Pink Floyd
I'm no P90 expert in any way . But I put an Oli City Mighty Ninety in my partscaster tele - really like it. Ash was great to deal with.

That's mostly Pig 90 bridge in the sg. Volume rolled down for the intro/cleaner bits then up full for the chorus riffs. Leads were done with the neck MQ in the same guitar, same amp settings.
They sound just like they say, smooth on the Neck, and mighty on the bridge.
Ash is, as everyone says, a joy to deal with.
