The P100's not all that great, but some people like them. It had an underwound "dummy" coil to help cancel the heavy P90 hum, but also increases the output and midrange response. From what I can tell, MLP is split in terms of favorability - I'm one of the nays.
Try it out and see if you dig it. If you're looking for something more laid back and balanced/vintage sounding, snip the white wire connecting both coils and you're in true P90 territory
