tele neck pickup recommendations needed

Deciding to go with some low output pickups in my tele. I'll be using a duncan Broadcaster in the bridge, but need recommendations for a neck humbucker.

What would go well, volume-wise, with the Broadcaster pickup? So far, my choices are: Dimarzio PAF (not the "Pro", just the normal version), Duncan Pearly Gates, Duncan Antiquity. Not interested in the Seth Lover since it's not wax potted and I'll be using this for rock.

Any other ideas? I want to make sure that I get a humbucker that matches up with the bridge pickup well, so that there isn't a huge volume difference. I realize that this may be difficult with a low output bridge pup like the Broadcaster.

thanks,
J.
 
Re: tele neck pickup recommendations needed

I use a Stag Mag in the neck of my HS Tele. Whats cool about it is you can wire it so its "split" in its normal mode. That gives you, essentially, a Strat-ish single-coil in the neck. Then use a push-pull to switch it into full humbucker mode when you want a little more "beef".

Just a thought. :)
