New Neck Pick-up

Well, my new guitar will be here this week, and my X2N is ordered in, and will be here soon, now my question is what do you think would be a good team up with the X2N, right now I'm thinking along the lines of:

SD - JB
SD - 59
Dimarzio - Tone Zone
or
Just leave it with the X2N.

are you looking for a nice phat sounding neck pickup for cleans? or more treble cut yet gainy solo neck pickup?

the 59 is pretty clean... non of those pickups are really very hot....

Let me say this again..

THE JB IS NOT A NECK PICKUP NOR WOULD IT SOUND GOOD IN THE NECK POSITION.

The only pickup out of the ones mentioned that would give good results in the 59.

Good clean tone, with smooth leads.

the tone zone is great in the neck, I can vouch for that.

59's are nice too, but the tone zone is better for solo-ish stuff imo, it sounds even clearer.
