I'd suggest you go to the tips and clips forum and listen to alot of soundclips and decide for yourself. Some other sites with alot of soundclips on them are:

I have a Marshall MG100 DFX amp and I play hard rock, alternative, rock, some metal..stuff like Smashing Pumpkins, Bush, and Incubus to Mudvayne, Sevendust and Atreyu. Looking for nice clean and responsive distorted sounds. Thanks for any help!

I love the Jazz/C5 combo for playing hard/classic rock, but it may not suit your style of playing. For an all-mahogany SE, I'd suggest the soundclips of SD pickups or the tips and clips section like wasteof02 said. A good starter would be a Jazz/JB or 59/JB combo. Covers a lot of ground.
