Go for the DD. In my opinion, the Custom is my favorite but, the DD is a tad better at metal.

The DD gets my vote. It goes nicely with the 59n.

Re: which would go best with a 59 in a lp

You're asking what bridge pickup would compliment a 59N neck pickup in a Les Paul? Totally depends on the player. The JB would be great...as would a Distortion which is the same pickup as a JB only with a ceramic magnet. Personally, I like a 59B as the bridge pickup too. There is no best...but the Custom is very popular too.

I would not use a Custom Custom as it is the same pickup as a Custom but with a alnico 2 magnet and since the 59N is an alnico 5 pickup with alot of bass and treble, the Custom Custom might seem to lack bass and highs. It doesn't really...but compared to the fat, bright, bassy tone of a 59N, it might seem to. Lew

The Custom in a Lester is a force to be reckoned with!

Re: which would go best with a 59 in a lp

I voted for the Custom - it sounds great in a Les Paul for hard rock and metal.

I'd swap the '59n for an A2Pn though - the '59n has a little too much bottom end for me in a Les Paul.
