I have  pair of Ibanez RG's with a calibrated set of Nailbombs (alnico) in one and a calibrated set of Painkillers in the other and I find it impossible to decide which is my fave. Both guitars have mahogany bodies and both sets of pickups deliver the sort of tones you are looking for, though the Nailbombs do it in a more liquid, breathing, organic way whereas the Painkillers are more compressed and edgy, but both are truely superb.
So........buy another guitar and a set of each  8)

I should also mention that with BKP's , you'll rediscover why your guitar has a tone control for you to play with......one dimensional they ain't  :D
