Godin Exit 22: HSS but sounding HH

I have a Godin Exit 22 that has became my #1. The neck is perfect, I like the 24.75" scale length and the look of the mahogany body is to die for, so 3D (on mine at least). The most comfortable guitar for me yet.

Right now I have a set of EMG 60/S/S that I like a lot but I want a passive version of that guitar in HH format to replace my LP that while I like the sound, the bridge and shape are giving me a hard time to get used too, very uncomfortable.

So I checked in kijiji/Facebook and there's some Godin LG/X HH but I don't really like the look, the rosewood/ebony fingerboard, the trans/blue finish and some are 16" radius. So I'm wondering if I cannot get another Exit 22 and make an HH (almost) out of it.

Since the Exit 22 is HSS, I was thinking putting a Red Devil in the neck position for the "humbucker" sound and no middle pickup with a 3-way switch. What would be a good humbucker match in the bridge? I want both pickups to be really close together on volume and on tone, like a good LP.
 
PG would be my choice, too. It would match the Red Devil well...no need to spend the $ on the Lil PG.
 
Ok, will not pursue this idea as I found an HH guitar, will start a NGD thread.
