Which P90ish single coil for my faux Esquire?
After reading up on how cool Esquires were, I pulled the neck pickup on my CIJ '62 Custom reissue today, and decided I wanted to definitely wanted to go in a raunchy/ rock direction with the bridge pickup to complete the transformation. The stock Japanese pickup is just too thin, and needs a boost just to get some decent gain going on with my JCM 800. I really dig P90's, so I'm looking to go that direction.
After a lot of research, I've got things narrowed down to:

HD S90 is a wicked nice pickup for an Esquire; I had one for a while and for some silly reason swapped it out. Be sure to ground it and you will be fine - grind and crunch when full-on and still cleans up very nicely for those quiet times... ;-)
