Vintage rails and duckbuckers are the same pickup with different cosmetics. Pick the one you like the looks of better. Either one will be a great choice, nice and jangly. They should match up with the output of your other pickups as well.

If it's between those two, I'd pick the Vintage Rails mainly to cosmetically match the Cool Rails.
