P90's are great but you are limited to that sound. If they meet your style, good deal. However, if you want to work within multiple styles, humbucker may be your deal.

from single coils P-90's on a Epi Casin they tend to pick up noise and I know this was the case but occasional popping and that makes me nuts. There is nothing wrong with them I have had two techs go thru it but I know humbuckers pick up none of that. I am wondering if I ws to change out the P-90's on my Casino a Hollow body to humbuckers. I bought the Casino for Blues and want to maintain that sound but Classic rock flexibility as well. I do love the Casino sound but not the crap the pickups pick up. I play a SG with humbuckers and its rippin.
