I have a Suhr Standard HSS with alder body and 25.5 scale rosewood fretboard.

The current pickups are SSH+/V60/V60. I’d like to try some different pickups in this guitar, just because.

I have a Suhr Aldrich humbucker on-hand; I had one in a Suhr Modern and liked it a lot.

Any suggestions for single coils that will match well with the Aldrich?

Thanks!
 
The Ian Thornley models have an ML single coil matched with the Aldrich in the middle of a HSH setup, and he gets some great tones
 
Good question!

I have another HSS guitar, maple fretboard, with V60LPs that I really like for cleans and edge-of-breakup. So, those bases are covered.

This other HSS guitar, rosewood fretboard, will be used for higher gain tones, rather than clean. I'm not too concerned if the 2 and 4 positions aren't full-on stratty.

I like soloing on the neck pickup with an overdriven, sustain-y tone that isn't too strident in high frequencies. I'd like the lows to be tight and a bump in the mids could be OK.

This guitar has V60s and a SSV+ in it now. There's nothing at all wrong with these, I'm just wanting to try something different.
