Humbuckers generally seem to sound brighter (and harsher) in alder, bolt-on guitars than they do in mahogany, set-neck guitars. 

I think the CS might be a bit too bright in an alder guitar, but that's just a guess really.  :?

Got my Gibson LP Custom back from the tech yesterday with CS calibrated set installed.
I've only had the chance to try it at home through a practice amp, but I was mighty impressed.
Fantastic clean and dirty tones! The bridge pickup was tight with a fantastic glassy crunch, and I couldn't stop playing leads on the neck pickup.
Can't wait to try it in rehearsal through my Mesa Triple Rec!   :P

I've got a CS set too & I love them :)  Mine are in a through neck Mockingbird (maple with mahogany wings).  Sounds awesome.

They sound great in mahogany... my PRS CuRo can do nice or really nasty with ease.  :D

I have a set in my original 82 Mockingbird which is a mahogany neck through.  With the whole arsenal of switches I can get pretty much any sound from them.
