C5 opinions

[Rocker35]

sounds to me like i would hate it then? from what i remember you tried a C5 in a les paul right?

well i would not even want to think how crappy it would sound in my ibanez then!

Hey RG 2570, check out the thread with my clip of a C5 in my alder bodied, Floyd equipped Jackson.

Yes, I am still up in the air over the C-5. I missed a lot of thickness and growl I get from pickups with more mids and I tried and tried to thickenup the mids at the amp. I however DID NOT have the cut problems some people report with the C-5. It cut through the mix fine!

I have a worry that the C5 will sound to tame? i like a tone that is aggressive but balanced? the C5 on paper looks very unbalanced?
I took the JB back and got store credit,and am wondering what if any duncan i should try next?
you know how it goes,i am 95% happy with the wolfgangs but it is that 5% that keeps makin me think there is something better
