Funny you should ask . . . just mated a C5 with a Distortion this weekend. Sounds outstanding.

Had really good luck with a JAZZ, also; O'l Slash's [Gun's and Roses] --duty--
Alnico Pro-II--neck-- SWEET CHILD OF MINE TONE!!![]()



APH and Pearly Gates get along well with the C5 as well. I think the Seth would work too.
Ain't nothin' but a G thang, baby.
I've got a Jazz/C5 set in my LP Standard at the moment. They sound great together.

thanks for the replies guys. I was kinda leaning towards a jazz also.

Jazz/C5 works well in my SG too.



If you like less bass in the neck pup then a Jazz would be nice choice, I have the 59N with my C5 in a McCarty and it really is a great match!
