Good set for a metal tele?

I'm redoing a tele at the moment and felt like making it more metal \m/ (I feel if I want a real tele type sound I'm gonna need a real fender tele so I'm not going the fender style this time. I'm thinking a hot rails neck, and I'm not sure what I want for the bridge humbucker (only the neck needs to be a tele neck sized pickup, the bridge gets the real deal humbucker. Thoughts?
 
Re: Good set for a metal tele?

Alternative 8, Distortion, Black Winter, Dimebucker, Nazgul, Custom, Custom 5, maybe even the 59/Custom hybrid.
Anyone, have I missed anything?

I have a custom custom but I think I'm saving that to replace the bridge pickup in my strat, I had been thinking a jb but then after seeing some videos wasn't too impressed with it like I thought I would've been. I'll look up some demos of those ones, I'm familiar with the names but I don't know too much of their tone.

Oh and the Pegasus. It's the A5 compatriot to the Nazgul.

I'm really digging what I've seen of the alternative 8, and matched with a cool rails (hmm maybe instead of a hot rails?) it sounds great!

Ok scratch that, they don't make a tele cool rails neck pickup and I'm not dishing out custom shop prices for this guitar, I guess hot rails it is
