I'm thinking of putting CS54's in my Ash/Am Dlx Strat.
Given that its an ash body which tends to be a bit brighter than an alder body, would the CS 54's in this case be too bright?

You don't like the SCN's that it came with? Or did yours not have them?

I didn't at the beginning.. they take some time getting used to, now I really don't mind them.. as a matter of fact I have come to like them for what they are , but what I have in mind is making a loaded pickguard with new pickups so i can interchange them with the stock PG. I've done that before with my 60th anniversary and found it to be the way to go ...

They are pretty mellow sounding pickups so those would probably be a good choice. I had a set in my '57 Reissue and loved them.
