I recently picked up a new Les Paul Custom that came with the standard 490/498 combo. It sounded good stock, but I have never been a huge fan of the 490 sets. I find them to have a weird midrange thing going on. After doing a bit of research I decided to go with the Brobucker for the bridge and a Pearly Gates for the neck. They should arrive this week, and I am really looking forward to seeing how they sound.
My Custom is a Sparkle Silver, so I decided to go double black on both pickups. I'll post some before and after pictures once installed.
