Time to Upgrade the Legator. Pickups, emg? Barts?

Need some help with pickup replacement.... given the main use for this will be rock/metal I'm thinking I may just keep to the Keep it simple method and go EMG even though that will require some wood routing for the pickups.

so looking for someone who maybe has experience with the MM5 Pickups from emg....... has anyone run an emg mm5cs with an mm5tw together? if so what were your results? is it better to run just two of both or one of each......

I am interested in a coil split setup too and to to it I am willing to add some extra knob staces than what is shown here...... any experience or recommendations is appreciated.


Also considering Bartolinis, or aguilar DCB®-M SERIES but do not know if those will have the attack I want, so recommendations (without spending super crazy money) are appreciated.
