The PATB-1 is a great pickup! I highly recommend it to anyone wanting a balanced bridge pickup. The B/M/T is extremely well balanced. It is my goto pickup for any guitar with a Floyd Rose setup. It has about the same heat as a JB, but is very balanced across the EQ spectrum. The mids are warm and fat. I currently have a PATB-1 set in my Charvel ProMod, and they have been there for several years. Love these pickups!

The Custom 5 has less mids and about 1.5x the output of a 59. If you want something thicker and more snarly than the 59, that is the Custom Custom.Administrator of the SDUGF

It is closer to the 59 than the JB. The output isn't as high as a JB, there is less compression, but the low end is massive. It doesn't have the upper mid JB thing, either.Administrator of the SDUGF

The FS is less compressed than the JB, but it is a very bright pickup. Great if you have a muddy sounding guitar, or like a ton of high frequencies.
