If you're using a Line 6 the woods won't really make a big difference, the Invader should be fine. Warmoth is right, the Invader is better suited in brighter guitars like alder, poplar, maple, etc.

Another option would be the DiMarzio Evolution 7, that's the perfect death metal pickup in terms of DiMarzios IMO. Really brutal mid-range but also great clarity, crunch, and balls.

If you want to go more high-end, you could look into Bare Knuckle Pickups as well.
