Default Do some Electric Guitars (pickups) not sound good with your amp?

Hey All. Do some Electric Guitars not sound good with your amp? Perhaps rather than Electric Guitar I should say pickups. And of course, the speaker plays a big role too. Let's leave out pedals just to keep the signal path clean.

I have a Marshall Vintage Marshall with matching 425A cab (G12C greenbacks). The Seymour Duncan Alnico Pro IIs, '59, and Gibson 57 Classics sound great through it. The DiMarzio Super Distortions and EMG 81/85s (active) don't. This is as I expected.

Now, those Dimarzios and EMGs sound great through my JVM though with the 1960a cab.

How about you?
