I personally love hot pickups.
The pickup all depends on how you play, what kind of music you play, the settings you play with.

If you provide some more details we can give you more of a push in the right direction.

Also try the tonefreaks section!

for Dimarzios I prefer the Super Distortion for the bridge and PAF Pro or Air Norton for the neck, I've been using Super D's for almost 30 years now although I occasionally check out other pickups I still like the sounds I get.

Agree. This combo is a classic setup and can handle just about everything.
