Would these be a good setup of pickups for Metal?

BRIDGE PICKUP 1 Seymour Duncan® TB4 “JB” Humbucker
MIDDLE PICKUP 1 Seymour Duncan® Classic Stack Humbucker
NECK PICKUP 1 Seymour Duncan® Classic Stack Humbucker

Any opinion and suggestions welcome,

Thanks

I can think of better setups, the JB is nice and can sound pretty brutal, but there are better seymour duncans, what about the Livewire metal pickup? (this one is active though)

or the invader?

or the 'Dime'bucker?

Seymour duncan has a lot of neat pickups suited for metal, I wouldn't go for classic stacks or TB4's since there's better stuff out there for metal, and don't forget about DiMarzio's and EMG's either.

somehow the pics won't link, so you'll have to click them.

Well, you're looking at an SSH setup here... personally, I'd go for a JB in the bridge, a Hot Rails in the neck (or you could go for another JB junior: same as the fullsize, but in a single coil size), and your choice of single coil for the middle.
