    Can anyone advise on the above matter? Thank you.

That's how I would go about it. Or if the humbucker is bigger than the P pickup hole then just use the provided pickguard and cut that etc.
    +1 for using templates and a router to change to a humbucker. You may also want to consider changing the pots to 500 K (not 250K). when using a humbucker.

    Thank you, I will need to wait until the store opens. I hope it will be soon.
