Pickups for a Les Paul

Hey guys

I require your help in deciding what pickups to use in my Les Paul, as it currently has none.

Id like to get a versatile set, which can sound Slash/Randy, but can also be used for more bluesy stuff like B.B King.

Since i like to play a large variety of music (from blues to metal, though i wont be playing much metal on my LP), which pickups would you recommend?

 

Thanks very much

My personal favorites are the Burstbucker Pros. We are using those in the LP Standard '08 models. Some of our most popular, and considered to be versitile are the '57 Classics. A lot of folks like those.

 

If I were you, I'd go to a dealership and pick up a bunch of different Les Paul models. Don't even worry about what pickups are in them until you find the ones you like- then ask. It may surprise you! That's a good way to be objective about your decision... just listen to them first!
