    Mate that thing is gorgeous. I too picked the humbucker sized P90's. they sound great too.

    Had to rewire mine I think 3 times and I destroyed a pot in doing so....you are not alone.

    I've was having some trouble intonating so i swaped out the nut for a graphtec and layed it back a bit and put some phosphor bronze 11s on and its all good.
    I've got to say the rebel p90s sound sweet i dont think you could go too wrong putting them in any guitar,
    I'm a converted fan now

    It why you need to have a bit of adjustment left in the truss rod when you’ve finished setting the guitar up. You are going to have to adjust the set up a few months down the track.
