OK,I was somewhat in the same position you were in,with all the pick up options and what to get or what would give me the best options to get one guitar to,like you said use as an "Jack of all trades Guitar" But I ended up going with The DiMarzio's and Installed The Fast Track 2 in the bridge,Fast Track 1 in the middle,and The Chopper in the neck,Then changed the stock pots to 250K Push/Pull Tone/Volume Pots and got a very noticible difference in the five way selector switch and not to mention the push/pull tone/volume pots gives me even more options from spliting humbuckers too single coils,But the guitar gives me the all round sound to play what i want,But Maybe One Day I will Change out the Fast Track 2 in the Bridge to Replace with The DiMarzio Super Distorion Which Supposedly Gives More Bass But For Now I Like What I Have and It is My Go To Guitar In My Collection...
