Pickup selection help!

hi there, i'm relatively new to the forums. i know that this question has been asked about 10000000 times but i'm still asking it. i want to know what would be the best selection of pickups to support the mod rock/post grunge sound. i am not a big metal head. so no meshuggah or death or even metallica for me. i know i'm . infact i picked up a seven after learing that crossfade and RA use 7-strings(Ed sloan & sahaj are kick ass vocalists) and not beacuse steve vai, korn(though i like them)or meshuggah or nevermore play them. though chris broderick is insanely sick

i did try out bryan's or ryan's pickup selection thread but it didn't help as it was way too metal, so i couldn't figure out the difference. in short i don't want an extremely beefy sounding pick up!

any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance
