i'm leaning toward motorcity pickups.. i have afwayu in my all maple guitar that worked well.
 
I can't believe no one suggested the Dimarzio SD or Duncan JB yet :lol: :LOL:

You beat me to it!

I have a Peavey HP Special with the exact same wood combo (even the maple neck and board), its pups are custom wound to JB/Jazz specs (at least in terms of the DC resistance). The bridge pup sounds great in it, has a lot of sizzle if that's what you're going for.
 
I have two Suhr guitars with that combo, and the Motor City pickups have served well in them.

Hot Heads in one, and Angel Dust in the other. But the Afwayu seems to like my Les Pauls better, due to that particular wood combo.

Fantastic pickups either way !
