What singles to go with a Screamin' Demon bridge HB?

[Peko]

Hey Folks,

My son and I are building his first real guitar. We have decided on an HSS set up and are going to be putting the Lynch Screamin' Demon hb in the bridge, and suggestions for a nice pair of hum cancelling singles to go with this layout?

I have an ESP M-II that has had the screamin demon in the bridge since they first hit the streets. The neck pickup is a stock version of the Hot Rails. This may not help you, since you really didn't give us any more info...but I'm really fond of the rails pickups. I've been thinking of trying a vintage rail/cool rails in there just because it can get quite dark...but I have a push-pull pot that splits the Demon...so it all balances out.

I have Hot Rails in the neck and middle of my Jackson SL3, and I love them. They're a fat, loud pickup that splits nicely and works very well with either series or parallel internal wiring. I rewired the guitar so that I can split the two pickups and take a coil from each. The result is a somewhat dark Strat 2-position sound, but with more mids.

I don't know if they would be too loud for the Demon, but they work great with the JB. They sound like humbuckers, really, when wired in series.
