pickups for an SG?

I've got an Epiphone SG and I put a Duncan Custom in the brigde. I just recently got a 5150 and it sounds great through that. You might also want to check out the JB (bridge), or maybe the Distortion pickup. As for neck pickups I've heard the '59 is a good choice.

yes JB or custom bridge. I like the JB much for punk/hardcore (and i'm not the only one, look at the artist section).
For underoath stuff you maybe wann have a good clean sound. JB cleans are ok, but it's distortion sound rules.
for tacking back sunday poppy emo punk i would say JB or maybe Invader but no experience with it...
no exp. with neck buckers... but i think Jazz or 59 are fine

i dunno emery sorry
