New Tele Project. Need advice

I am building a custom guitar made of Mahogany and rosewood neck. The body will be mahogany as well. Which humbucker for the neck position will have a brighter tone to balance the warmer wood? Also, which single coil bridge pickup will work with the above humbucker in the neck. I thought the 59 would work, but after reading, I am hearing that the 59 id not very bright. What do ya think?

Thanks

My tele isn't Mahogany, but I like the way my Jazz Neck balances with the Lil59 in the bridge. The Jazz is bright and articulate, I tend to roll back my tone when I use it by itself, so it should sound great in a Mahogany bodied guitar.
Good luck

What would be a good choice of bridge pickup that would balance the Jazz in the neck?
