Looking for filtertron style high output humbuckers (lemmy.world)

I have a Cabronita style guitar (Harley Benton). I would like to swap pickups with some hot humbuckers but I don't want to have to carve the body to accomodate them. I'm looking for recommendations

I wouldn't try swapping for extra cost and effort to end up with a common layout and a butchered guitar. Get another guitar instead. Sell that one if you don't want Filtertrons at all.

I already have another guitar for different tunings but I really like the Cabronita-like because it was a gift and I want to use it for the genres I play. A pickup swap sound good and it'll get me to play it more
