At a Les Paul bridge
I put it in a Epiphone Les Paul Ultra 2 bridge. It's the greatest addition I could ever do... Basically if I knew better I would just get an even cheaper guitar probably (that would have of course a comfortable fretboard to play and good looks) and just change the electronics-pickups. Ready to go!
So, the pickup is great!!!! I have it with a 3-position switch on the right of the bridge. With the SHPR1-N also on the neck you can play virtually ANYTHING!!! The single-coil is convincing and clears it up for strumming and clearer tones or funk (ok it's not becoming a tele, but still), the P90 is the greatest for rock, and you have a fat tone with the humbucker when you need extra beef!! So, my reccomendation to conclude: try a guitar with P90s. You think you need that tone, as I thought? Buy it. You are ok without it? Go buy something cheaper, but certainly with a coil-split... It opens up so many possibilities..
My only regret: I never played something enough metal to need the extra hot component of the pickup. If I went back, I'd get the set of 2 pickups together (with the "mild" bridge pickup) and save some money.
