I have a semi (hard tail) music man axis. Lovely guitar and uber comfortable.
I did go through a process of replacing the pickups with more traditional dimarzios (36th Ann.) and did like the results but I always wanted to put something like a hot p90 style in this (even dare I say d armond flavoured)
Now, you might say to switch back to the originals .. I liked them a lot but I still want to try and take this guitar somewhere a bit different.
Problem is these are screwed to the body and have the triangular ears so it’s a nightmare sorting out what will drop in.
What options do I have? Any of the respected custom pickup builders here could help with?

I found my ALHH too dark (EVH style pickups) so put an oil city winterizer in the neck and a PAF style in the bridge.
Soundwise, the DiMarzio PAF Pro makes a nice neck position pickup.
The Crunchlab/Liquifire pair should work nicely for high gain overdriven styles.
(I don't have any experience with HB-sized P90s so I can't help there, I just remembered that about the pickups in mine and wanted to warn you.)
