With fingerpicking, it is noticeably darker/warmer than with the humbucker version I played at guitar center. I like the way the pickups sound with a pick too and you can make a TON of adjustments with the two separate volume knobs per pickup.
That said, the humbucker version plays more clearly and less amp noise. I don't use much distortion, but the P90 pickups just sound warmer to me and fit my style more. If the humbuckers are more to your style, I say go with it. What one guitarist loves another may not, there is no right or wrong answer for guitar tone with pickups. Go with what sounds good to your ear and feels good in your hands. Definitely try before you buy at a guitar shop if possible.
I'll probably make some new pickups for mine as I'd prefer some Trons,the stock pickups are more like a hot paf.
