RY- sure tight enough for metal, emphasized uppermids, bright topend
Holy Diver - tight enough for metal, emphasized center mids, round topend, great solotones
Nailbomb - alnico is already pretty tight, ceramic version tighter, 90's metal flavour, uppermidspike, but enough centermids (not as much as the HD), topendsizzle you like or you don't. Overall quite agressive.

So, for now I think Rebel Yell or Ceramic Nailbomb would be my best choice...

Can somebody tell me if Rebel Yell compress notes in chord like Nailbomb in this clip (beginning from 15th second):

I really like that sound, but I am little worried because Aftermath sound so good for palm mutes in this clip...
