Looking for New Pickup
So I have a Fender Stratocaster. Made in Mexico. It has a humbucker and 2 single coils. It isnt the normal set up with 3 single coils, where the one in the middle is slanted. I was wondering what kind of humbucker you guys think I should replace the bridge one with? I play heavy metal so obviously a hot, passive pickup. But at the same time I still want to be able to play some classic rock and blues. Thanks.
Edit: Alder Body, Maple Neck

I think I'm a bit confused on the pick up configuration. Are you saying you have a bridge humbucker pickup or a humbucker as a middle pickup? is it S-S-H? The first S being near the neck and the H being near the bridge? If thats the case than a SD TB-4 should do you nicely.

I agree. A Seymour Duncan JB will give you versatile tone for everything from metal to classic rock and blues.

It's good, but it only realy works well in Mahagony type bodies.
Alder is too trebly..
With Alder, I realy, realy, realy fucking like my SD Invader.

One of my guitars has that same PU config. I use an X2N in the bridge and a Pro Track (also from DiMarzio) in the middle and neck position. It works well for me...I also play metal, hard rock and classic rock stuff. I use the Pro Tracks for the classic rock since the X2N can be too hot for that type of music. But the X2N is great for metal, you cant go wrong with that pickup.

My guitar is dark dark purple, or dark dark red. Or dark dark maroon. Honestly I don't know what color it is, but I have never seen another one with the same color.
And what about those bareknuckle warpigs, I remember hearing they were the shit a while back.
