I’ve been tempted to pick-up a G5 mustang but I wanted to hear everyone’s thoughts on it first? I liked the original mustang but wasn’t the biggest fan of the mustang ES.

So I own pretty much every iteration of mustangs. For me it is same as for you the ES was not quite right. That said I would not recommend the G5 then. In general the G5 would be the last pick of all of them. The OG is just perfectly balanced in my opinion and the ES extra power is not necessary. The G5 has more the power of the ES but misses a bit the magic for me.  
BTW I have three OG and they also have ~1.5 gram variance.
