I was working with my hillybilly mate this arvo, he's more into trying to achieve different sounds, so I asked him about it. He has the T90's in one of his Gretcshes, which is a TV Jones version of the P90.

I'll have to see what he has spare lying around for me to try, in return for me designing and 3d printing him some dog-eared P90 to humbucker adapter mounts
