Funny, Ill take a stab at this:
Take an American quarter and a dime between the steels and the soapbar and that is a close dimension between heaven and hell, but use the dog ear under the soapbar if neccasary, so stay close my friend,
And have Happy New Year

Hi Craig, I think Giandomenico was referreing to a 'dog ear' P 90 (at least, I HOPE so!). 😊
Dog ear on the left, regular P90 on the right ...

I hear that P-90 pickups are very sensitive to string height. Since they all vary, there is no set dimension that works for all. Maybe start with 5mm then vary it from there, up and down. Listen. You'll have to adjust to find the good height.
