No, crappy soldering won't affect the tone, only if you managed to not connect something.
Longer wires would possibly increase noise and knock some of the top end off.
Since you don't seem convinced with them yet, I'd try and coil the excess somewhere just in case you trim it back too hard.
What value pots are in there? If there's too much twang maybe try lowering the values from 500k to 300k or 250k
As Danny mentioned, pickup heights are pretty crucial with P90's, even more so with the HB sized ones
They're BG Pure90s.
The pots are indeed 500k I believe, so will keep that in mind as an option. Just to be stupid, is it the tone or volume or both I should change?

And will definitely tinker with the height.
Thanks!
Good to change them all, but if you could only change two, the effect will be in the changing of the volumes
