Regarding Miracle Man, I have 2 of them in very similar guitars and none of them reminds me of Zakk Wylde that much. Honesty, I would say Miracle Man neck sounds more like a Zakk`s neck tone but bridge not so much. I can say I know MM quite well as it`s my favorite pickup so far and it provides the tone I was after but  it doesnt sound much of BLS... maybe it`s my setup (Orange TH30 and Dual Terror amps).
By the way MM set is my newest one but I was blown away by MM neck, I know it`s not so much popular here and it doesn`t have great reviews here but I even like it more than CS neck. Superior neck pickup on both clean and heavy metal lead. Loads of character. I`m not big fan of open vintage neck sound either Slash tone, like more mean and compressed necks and  MM neck delivers purely superior tone. But at the end it`s matter of taste.
It reminds me a little bit of bridge model, has very similar characteristics (just like alnico version of bridge put into neck slot).

Anyway in my opinion if you`re after articulation on fast runs stay away from CBomb. I would highly recommend Miracle Man though.
