Re: Melody Maker with P90?

I am thinking about swapping the element out for the highly recommended P90. Is this an easy job to do myself? I'd appreciate any experiences anyone like to share. Thanks!
from my experience with the new melody makers, the pickup sounds better closer to the body than the strings, the sweet spot is down low boys.
