Look also at Seymour Duncan P-rails.

This is a highly versatile setup and is very much suitable for a jazz/blues sound. You can go from a thin Strat sound to a nice full Les Paul lead tone with the right wiring/switch setup.

I think this wiring configuration represents the most versatility you can get out of these p/u's. I eliminated the tone knobs and just ran the grounds to the volume pots. Otherwise, this is way I wired this guitar and I'm very happy with it.
