[font=trebuchet ms]Hands down, the DiMarzio Super Distortion/Dual Sound humbucker. It's been used by the pros for everything from heavy metal to southern blues since the early 70's. With the coils wired in series, you can get pretty much any humbucking sound you want. In parallel, the sound is closer to a single coil, while still being quiet. Using just one of the coils gives you access to single-coil sounds (including the noise). Everything else on the market is just variations on what this pickup started 30 years ago.[/font]

Another versatile pickup worth looking into is the Duncan Pearly Gates. I would rather go with DiMarzio, but you might not share my tastes.
