p90 in the fender big hum formfactor?

I was diggin the sound of a TC90, but the feel of the Fender 72 thinline.

Anybody make a p90 type pickup that would fit in the fender humbucker slot?

A Duncan Phat-Cat, Rio Grande Fat Bastard, Gibson P94...

I'm pretty sure the Phat Cat, p94, etc. are made for the Gibson humbucker form factor, not the bigass weirdo Fender humbucker form factor.

Fralin makes a hum size P90 pickup that looks like the Seth Lover designed Fender humbucker, has offset polepieces 3 upper for the bass strings, 3 lower for the treble strings.
I think it is the std humbucker size though.

You might be able to get a new pickguard for the guitar that's already routed for a P90. That way you can choose from all of the P90 choices out there.
