The CS bridge doesn't have much by way of mids.

It is one of the most 'scooped' BKPs, perhaps second to the Miracle Man.

If you want strong mids, go for the Painkiller, A-Bomb, or Aftermath.

The Rebel Yell has great high mids and a tight bottom end, making it a good choice for Explorers.

I think the Cold Sweat could be nice, but you should expect it to sound scooped rather than middy.  Explorers aren't especially middy guitars so it's not like putting a CS in an SG, where the scoop really helps due to the mid hump in SGs.
