Thanks.
Wecome!!

The older P-90 loaded MM is discontinued, your best bet for finding one of those is E-bay.

To replace the pickup in the current MM, you are going to have to route the body to accept a P-90. I'd say DJ's got the best idea, get the Joan Jett and replace it with a 'bucker sized P-90.
