EC256 pickup recommendations

[punchlinechar]

Hey forum bros! Been a while, but I need some help. I have an LTD EC-256 that I use for a lot of different things, and the pickups aren't that great. I want the neck to have cleans like Marty Friedman's Scenes album when split, and a nice jazzy tone in full humbucker mode; it would also have to sound smooth but not muddy under high gain. I'm thinking Jazz there but maybe someone has a batter idea. For the bridge I want something that can really dish it out and get good harmonics under high gain, and can also do some lighter rock/blues on lower gain. I'd like to go Duncan, but I'm really intrigued by Dimarzio after listening to some more Vai and Paul Gilbert. I'm thinking of these for the bridge:

Duncan:
Distortion
JB
Custom
Omega
Perpetual Burn

Dimarzio:
Evolution
Breed
Imperium

Re: EC256 pickup recommendations

I still think the Jazz or the Sentient for the neck. For the bridge, either a Pegasus, or a Custom if you want versatility. All of these pickups do a respectable job split or parallel, too.
