What pups do I want? HSH

[ZxCv]

I just bought custom made RG-copy.
Basswood body, bolt on maple neck, rosewood fretboard, floyd rose and of course with crappy pickups. (probably gotoh? or something like that)

Anyway I want the bridge pickup to sound like when hell breaks loose. Thick lowend, but with a more crushing, searing highs.
I was thinking for the TB6, Distortion Trembucker? Or maybe a Dimarzio X2N?

For the neck I want something shred friendly, maybe a bit compressed but still singing without using pedals like tubescreamer. Maybe a Dimarzio FRED? Somethin that is fat and stays clear at higain setting, I guess Fullshred would be too trebly in this guitar?

The middle singlecoil Im just gone pick something that sounds like a strat should, fat with clean.

Any suggestions? :question:

I'll go with you on the neck and bridge but for the middle I've gotta say the APS-1 or APS-2 for the middle. The A2 magnets make a great fat tone. The APS-2 is fatter than the 1 as well ZxCv

For the bridge the Dimebucker would be another alternative because it will be very heavy and thick....I mean look who it's named for!
