Zoom H5 built in low cut
Do you use it and what level, 98?

Do you plan to play outside in the wind or next to a truck stop?
Basically that's when you might consider using it. Also I believe the lowest frequency setting for the Zoom's low cut filter is 80 Hz. That's significant guitar frequency territory. What's filtered out at the recording stage is gone forever. Save your high pass filtering, etc. for post recording tweaking fun.

I'd avoid the low cut filter, and you also mentioned the pad. Unless your mics are too hot and overdriving (doubtful), I'd also skip the pad. it won't help with noise because it turns everything down equally, guitar and environmental noise or mic self-noise. Then you just have to turn everything back up, so you're where you started, but possibly with some added self-noise from the recorder.
I often apply a low-cut (high pass) filter when mixing, but at a pretty low frequency, say 30-40Hz. Cuts out subsonics, and may reduce some low runble noise, but doesn't affect guitar frequencies. plus, since I do it when mixing, it's not permanent, and I can instantly hear the effect to see if it's good or bad, neither of which you can do if you engage the filter in the recorder. Doing in the DAW during mixing is more flexible, if it's needed.
