I would love to have a Dimarzio Model J in the bridge of any bass I get. That pickup really rocks out there. For the neck? A P-pickup or a Dimarzio UJ. I'm not too fond of my Model J in the neck position. It lacks clarity/warmth for playing solo, in a bandsituation; these pickups still really rock.

Dimarzio Model J in the bridge (with series/parallel switch) and a EMG P might be an interesting combination if you're after a growling, still sharp tone. Why? You can perfectly use the Model J as a stand alone pickup, boost the lows with the series/parallel switch and dial in some weird highend with the EMG's. IF that's your sound. It wouldn't be my sound.. I would put a dirty P pickup in the neck position and a Model J in the back, each having their own tone/volume.

Well.. that's me. For you? First; really describe WHAT kind of tone you want.
