I would check out the High output Dimarzio pickups. I'm a user of Dimarzio pickups and they are great. EMG's are more for the modern sound so if you want heavier and hotter stuff that might be for you too. I don't really like active pickups because I don't like how the strings react to them. Check out
DiMarzio.com and listen to the sound previews and EQ settings on the pickups it should help you out. When it shows the eq setting trust me it really shows you what you need. I
had basically a zero mid set up and I added middy pickups and v30 speakers and actually now have too much middle tone. Go to the website and get searching.
