Pickups for my Ash Ibanez rg

[CrankedMarshall]

Im looking for a bridge and neck pickup to bring my RG alive.

Compared to my Holy diver loaded strat the rg sounds bland with its EMG's.

Im looking for a warm 80's metal sounds, lotsa crunch but tight.

And in the neck I just need a smooth lead tone with great sustain.

I had the Cold sweat set before in another strat that I loved, so I was thinking of getting these or the painkiller set.

Suggestions?

Does the nailbomb do classic rock sounds also?

Woo, I was thinking Nailbomb, too!

Very versatile :)

80s rock tone says it all, the Nail Bomb! since im sure the album its based on was actually from the 80s :)

1994, but it does seem to be a great DiMarzio-beater in those RG style guitars!  :)
