have to ask? JB and custom fans/users?

[Rainmaker]

But is it possible to have the best of both worlds? I always thought in order to get the good characteristics of either pickup, something else must be sacrificed (ie. type of magnet, etc.).

My Custom is here! And it sounds awesome! Almost exactly what I was looking for in a pickup, I'm pretty stoked!

I'd say that the Custom is great for heavy riffs and the JB 'the' pickup for lead and has great cleans. A Combination of both those qualities would make the ultimate pickup reality...

Now I wonder what a C5 sounds like, lol.
Next pickup on the list: Dimarzio Super Distortion.

I kind of thought this too because it seems that people are asking for more low end and lower mids...seem like that would actually flatten out the EQ.

I just got one a week ago, and I love it! Really cool snarly tone.
