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

    APH and Pearly Gates get along well with the C5 as well. I think the Seth would work too.

    I've got a Jazz/C5 set in my LP Standard at the moment. They sound great together.

    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!
