Most Versatile 7-string pickup?

Looking for new pickups for my Schecter Omen-7 that I've had for two years! I play about every genre under the sun so versatility is key. Relative to the stock Schecter "SuperRock" pickups (which are somewhat high output with ceramic mag & all slug pole pieces), I'm looking for better articulation, more warmth, more harmonic content, and good split sounds.
Relevant specs:
26.5"
24 frets
basswood/maple/rosewood
TOM/string-thru
Dunlop Heavy Core 10-60 strings

My current ideas:
59/JB, 59/Custom, Invader, Black Winter, Schecter Apocalypse, Schecter Pasadena

What do you all think? Thanks in advance!

If I had to put Duncans it would be the Custom ( wild beast if you listen to Duncan's sound clip , and not overpowered so their is still some dynamics ) in the bridge , and the Full shred for the neck ( most articulate neck Duncan , not too bassy on low strings ) .
The Lace Deathbar and X-bar are also a nice versatile combo , very quiet and clean with lots of dynamics .

Thanks! I tried a full shred bridge once and wasn't into it, but maybe I'll try the neck version!
