I've had a PRS SE single cut sitting around for a couple of years - I bought it as my keep in the car guitar as I travel a lot for work and it makes a more productive evening. Nice bargain, on eBay and means I don't have to worry about my pricey ones getting beaten up/knicked.
It's one of these:

I was thinking of putting in some P90's, as I've already got 3 other USA PRS's that have all the humbucker/coil tap territory taken care of. But does anyone know what good in the humbucker sized P90 world?
Never owned a P90 guitar, so thought it would be a good chance to get used to them a bit more.
Anyone know humbucker sized P90's that are particularly good, or any that I really should avoid?
Comments
Both do a HB sized P90. Both are CHEAP too. For a spare guitar they're ideal.
The IronGear alchemist90 gets a particularly good write up.
I recommend the latter for your guitar. The installation is fairly involved. The end result is a multi-purpose guitar capable of numerous tones.
In fairness, I must admit that some of the coil permutations presented by the Triple Shot system are not especially usable (to my ears). It might be easier and more affordable to have fewer switchable options and govern them through either push-pull pots or a Freeway 3x3-03 six position toggle selector switch.

Mojo do all sorts of P90, GoldFoil, MojoTron H/B sized pickups.
Feedback
Not trying to be a smartass, but I think it's necessary to clarify that for anyone who doesn't know.
I put a set of Seymour Duncan Phat Cats in a PRS SE yesterday and was very impressed with them.
