I just bought the SH-5 and SH2N and I'm wondering if I made the best choice?? I have a basswood Schecter diamond series damien 6. I play metalcore like as I lay dying, killswitch engage, August burns red, trivium, and also like born of osiris, arch enemy, in flames and so on......will this set up be good for this genre!?

Re: SH-5 and SH-2N combo
It should be decent. I don't play stuff that heavy, but I've had a Custom & Jazz in my Explorer since 2002 or 2003 and I love it for stuff like Megadeth and Alice in Chains. Tone-wise I find the Custom to be similar to the JB, but with a lower frequency focus and tighter bass.

For some members, that's a great combo. For me, god no.

Jazz is an excellent choice for the neck. Depending on your amp and tonal preference, the Custom could be very good. Duncan has the 21 Day exchange policy, so have them installed and try them out so you can answer the question yourself.

Lots of people play that music with very different than expected pickups. I'd give it a try. If for some reason it doesn't work, take advantage of the 21 Day Exchange Policy.

I have that exact combo, Custom bridge, Jazz neck, in one of my guitars right now, and it's great. Well-matched, articulate, versatile. Pair with a 5150 amp, and you can access the tones of all the bands you mentioned.
