The Holy Diver is spot on for the bridge. In an ash strat I would consider the VHII-neck. That's a little mellower then the HD-neck, from what I read in other threads.

Ok Holy diver for bridge  :D , for neck i prefer tight and bright sound, for clean use. My guitar in neck position is little bassy

In that case the HD-neck could be the ticket.
