Bridge Pickup recommendations for prs singlecut

My current bridge pup has quite a bit of a nasal honk. Can anyone recommend a pup that doesn't have this tonal characteristic?
Thanks.

Any PAF-voiced pickup would work (59, Custom, Whole Lotta Humbuckers) but it would help us to know what kind of guitar and what kind of music, too.

Yes, is your PRS an SE? They can be quite honky sometimes.
My first thought would be a 59B or Custom5.

(Custom5 sounds great in my SE, exactly what it needed.)

Thanks for the suggestions. My PSR is an Se singlecut from approximately 2007. I play mainly classic rock Alt rock but also love to play clean and with pedals (OCD and Soul Food and Badass Distortion for my drive.

I have one of the older, thinner ones from about 2003 or so, which might be exactly like yours. I had very good results with a set of Dimarzio 36th Anniversaries, which I disliked in multiple guitars before that. You also can't go wrong with 59s or Whole Lotta Humbuckers, especially if you get into magnet swapping to fine tune what you're looking for. Phat Cats could also be a nice option. They rock more than you would think, being single coil.
