JP pickup question

Does anyone know if there is a pickup available from DiMarzio that is comparable to the current JP neck pickup? I have a 2007 JP 6, and I'd like to replace the pickups in one of my other guitars with DiMarzios of similar tone and output. The D sonic is easy since that's one I can buy straight out, but since the neck pickup is supposed to be JP specific, I've really got no ideas on that one. If anyone has any input I'd be interested in hearing it. Thanks.
 
Air Norton

If you put an Air Norton (Dimarzio) in the neck its pretty close

The JP neck is a modified air norton

:)
 
It's CLOSE, but no cigar. I've compared the Air Norton side-by-side, and The Stock JP one seems to be a bit looser, and less focus compared to the air norton. It SEEMED like the stock one was of a slightly lower output... and a bit mroe transparency... the Air Norton has an opaqueness to it...

But looking at all the options out there, I guess that's the closest you can find...
