Thoughts on an upgrade

Looking for thoughts/advice. I have a 1996 MIM Stratocaster that has been with me for 20+ years. I have always been confident that I picked a winner, but the American Professional II has showed me that it needs something a little extra. (Context: I have a 70th Anniversary American Professional II and it's everything I have ever wanted in a guitar. I am NOT taking this thing on an airplane, playing a wedding, etc. That's what my MiM is for.) Namely, I really need that push push engage the neck pickup on channels 1 & 2.

So, here's the dilemma: should a guy swap out pickups and wire the guitar for that functionality (I have no idea what it would cost and I am definitely not doing it myself) or is it better to just pick up a new American Professional II as a road guitar? Thanks, everyone for your counsel.
