Hey guys, as some of You may seen I'm looking for Seymours' DD90 in Trading Post, but because of rather low chance of success I'm looking for alternatives.

What I want?
-humbucker sized
-best would be noiseless, but that's not a dealbreaker
-P90 or P90-ish sounding
-present lows, but not boomy
-fair amount of midrange, because I hate scooped sound
-nice chimey highs, but not piercing

I was thinking about something with AlNiCo 3's as these magnets generally tend to have this kind of characteristics.

It has to be cheaper than a SD CS creation, because obviously, if I would have to pay the same amount of money, I would go always prefer tailored solution.

Also, I've heard about a guy from a Les Paul forum that is doing rewinds, but I forgot his name. Anyone?

If you’re open to alternative manufacturers, take a look at the Railhammer Nuevo-90s or Huevos-90s - great tone and do everything you’re asking for.

Yes, I'm open to any manufacturers. I will look into Railhammers, thx :)

I'd say if you haven't gotten a CS pickup yet, and the money thing is a preference and not an absolute, I would use this as a chance to get one. There are very few pickups that match your specs and the CS could get it down to a t for you.

Or you could mag swap a Phat Cat to A5/A3.

Funny, the Nuevo90 was the first thing that came to mind.

The BG Pure90 has a good reputation. And they're on sale right now.
