Right now my Charvel Model 5FX has EMG active pickups & I'm going to passive pickups and came across the Gibson Dirty Fingers SM Humbucker - Onyx that I might try in the bridge but my Charvel is an H/S configuration so I’m looking for a neck single coil (Without Triangular Baseplate) or railbucker to pair with the Dirty Fingers humbucker.
 
I haven't tried this SM version, but assuming it's similarly hot to the regular vintage Dirty Fingers, you'd need something also hot to balance well with and there IME not many great sounding options for that in single coil size. I would say of what I've played just the vintage Bill Lawrence's (L-220 or L-250) or vintage Schaller S6. Actually, I totally forgot, the Mighty Mite single coils are awesome and like those even more than the Schaller or Bill Lawrence hotter offering for this
