Pick-up Suggestions for ESP LTD B-255?

I really like my ESP LTD B-255, I like the way it feels, the way it looks, the low action - pretty much everything about it. EXCEPT! I'm not so happy about the pick-ups anymore...I've currently got two soapbar EMG-Hz's, so instead of buying a new bass I was wondering if a decent set of pick ups might help me out?

I would like something that can be quite bright in the mids and highs but also retains a bit of growling or gritty lows without becoming muddled if this is possible? or is that more of a preamp thing?

I currently have MECs in my warwick Streamer LX and am quite happy with those if this helps...
