What to expect from this combination? C5 + mini humbuckers

[Flam]

Hi

I've been looking on an alder strat syle guitar with the Custom 5 in the bridge, and SM-3 mini humbuckers in the neck and middle. I have read lots of different opinions on these, especially on the C5 humbucker. I have heard some people saying that it doesn't work that good in a strat body. So now i'm just interested in hearing your thoughts on the pickup combination mentioned above. What should i expect from it, what music styles should it cover, versitality and so on?
Usually i like to play (heavy)metal/classic rock/blues tones. Would this combination do it for me?

Thanks.

You will have no problem playing metal, classic rock, and blues with that set up. I'm sure it will come out awesome. The C5 sounds really good in a strat.

Thanks for your input!
Does those pickups differ much in output? Or should they balance well with eachother? And what about versitality, would they sound good clean too, as well as in other genres of music than the ones i mentioned above?
If anyone else has tried this combination, please share your thoughts on it. Or anyone who has anything to say regarding this really!

Yes. They should balance perfectly because they differ in output. Vintage output neck pickups and high output bridge pickup. I think they sound great clean. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUWw-W8sehc
