Humbuckers for a baritone

Hey all,
I just got an Agile AL2800 baritone and I'm in the market for replacement humbuckers.
I got it used and it is not equipped with the stock pu's, but I have no idea what's in it. Replacing them anyway.
I'm really just looking for clarity and power. I'd like to have non-muddy cleans.
I've thought about Seymour Duncan JBs but I'm sure how they would handle all the bass.
Help me ILF, you're my only hope.

Single coils, and low output pickups were what I preferred when I use to play B-B. So, I guess something like that.

I dug my SH-5 on my guitar that I kept in drop A? Lotsa mids, and a real crunchy presence. Great with gain.

I think whatever comes in the blacktop tele that you didnt get because you got an agile is going to be fantastic.

well... except if you put one in a strat and expect it to sound stratlike vs amazingly like a acoustic guitar then sure...

Yeah, I'm pretty annoyed with the news of the tele bari, when I just bought mine last week.
It's looking like the SH-5 is the way to go, but I'm still open to suggestion.

Logic would say go for the lowest output buckers you can find, something with a really tight bass response.
Me? I put bkp warpigs in my agile 2800b
