P90 P/ups

Hi. Can any one recommend a set of two P90 p/ups with a Humbucker type fitting. I would use them for Rythm guitar for 60’s and 70’s numbers. So not necessarily looking for the Shads sound on these.
Many thanks! Dave

No hesitation: Catswhisker pickups.

I have pairs of their P90s wound within both Jazzmaster and humbucker form-factors. One fits a Fender J Mascis Jazzmaster (bought some years ago from David Martin) and the other (the HB) fits a Squier Jagmaster.

Excellent pickups.

The HB size is marketed in cream plastic as the Phat Moggie, or, as in the case of my Jagmaster, in white plastic as the White Pussy.

The pickups are about £55 each (maybe a little more).
