Suggestions on pickups in three different guitars

[romanianreaper]

I have three guitars and three different pickups and trying to think of the best combination for each. Just wanted to get some suggestions:

The guitars:
2021 Gibson Les Paul Classic (pretty hefty)
2003 Gibson Les Paul Classic (lighter)
1979 Gibson The Paul (walnut and ebony board)

Pickups:
Suhr Aldrich
Tonenerd Whiskey
Motor City 2nd Degree Blackbelt

The Suhr won't go in the 1979 guitar but wondering which of the other pickups would be good. The walnut makes it sound darker. As a reference, I have a Super Distortion in there now. I could leave it in but would be cool to upgrade since I have some killer pickups.

If your amp has all the gain you can ever need, why a hot pickup.

The cooler the pickup, the more you actually hear the guitar.

I actually loved the Aldrich in a Les Paul I had years ago. Cleaned up awesome. I have the 5150-III with tons of gain but also have an Orange Super Crush that is a bit more chill.

I have a Tom Holmes in the bridge of my 02 LP Classic. Blue channel of the EVH 50 watt is pure EVH heaven. All the dirt I will ever need.
