P90 difference to a humbucker: snappier, less output and less compression and has a bit of grain in the upper harmonics that a humbucker cannot reproduce.

P90 difference to a single coil: fatter, more output (in general terms, not counting extremes of both types) and more warmth on the treble strings.

Cheers Stephan
