looking for a warm bridge pickup for my les paul, the stock is to harsh for me...tried the '59 and its even harsher still...looking for something warm. any suggestions?
The Custom Custom is probably what you're looking for. It's Alnico 2, overwound to 14.4K, has great low mids, and the highs are rolled off just enough to never sound harsh or shrill.
I think of the Custom series like this
Custom for Metal
Custom 5 for Heavy Rock
Custom Custom for Blues Rock
