What would you guys choose for a Classic 70's Strat

[Darko]

Well i have a classic 70's strat and i love the neck & midle pickups. The thing is that the bridge pickup sounds horrible and i want to replace it. Im looking for a classic sound ala Zeppelin or ac/dc. Im considering the following pickups:

Strat Hot Rails

SL59-1 Little '59

But i cant decide, what do you guys think?
any other suggestion is welcomed

Lil 59, or for more punch, the Jb jr does well. In the Dimarzio camp, the Fast Track 1 does well for those types of sounds in my rosewood fretboard, basswood bodied strat.

i have a rosewood fretboard and a ash body.

Between the JB and the 59 what are their main diferences??

JB has about twice the output of a 59 with bigger lows and high mid peak. It's a versatile sound that can cover a lot of bases well. The 59 is going to be more open and less compressed than the JB but still has good output.

If you're going to keep your 70's neck and middle pickups, I'd go with an Antiquity II Custom bridge and a Boss DS-1.
