[QUOTE="jimosity, post: 1653, member: 131"] I had a Dimebucker in a guitar (Ibanez RG) and it sounded terrible. I think the luster of having a dimebag pickup is more intriguing than being stuck with the actual tone that that pickup provides. The first thing I would recommend would be EMGs (81/85)... But if you must stay with passive pickups, check out the Duncan Custom Custom (not just the Custom, the Custom Custom) or better yet I think in terms of passive pickups is the DiMarzio Fred. A lot of guys will swear by the DiMarzio Tone Zone, but I've had about 4 over the years; they sounded amazing in two guitars; but most others I tried them in they were too dark and muddy. The only passive pickup that I would gladly switch to without any reservation is the DiMarzio Fred (yeah; I know you wouldn't really think that the Joe Satriani pickup would be that ballsy, but it is)...
