Of the Duncan pickups I've tried my favorite so far is the 59. The Jazz is pretty good too, but I think the 59 is a little smoother.

Single coils for sure.
In my preference, vintage Jaguar pickups. Or most things that attempt to replicate them... though it's probably more due to the wiring, and them being in Jaguars than anything. Surfy, twangy, a bit hollow, ring like a bell, perfect.

For live use, EMG SA's with the SPC turned up just a touch.
For recording or at home use, the neck SM-1 in my Alleykat is very cool. It's almost acoustic sounding in a hollowbody, though it could use more output, as it tends to get lost in a live mix.
