Pick-up for a good D-sound

Yep that is the only way you will be able to tell unless you spend a lot of cash trying them in your guitar.
I'd hate to add up all I have spent on pickups over the years.
Never recover much in the resale.

Don't forget Van Zandt pickups, i like them very much. I use a combination of blues and rock. They also have their version of the vintage (54 type I guess).
