Hi everybody. New PRS user here. I traded a Les Paul Standard for a 2003 McCarty.
Playing it for 3 weeks now and I'm really happy with it. Build quality, playability and craftmanship are top notch.
The only thing is the pickups (especially the neck) sound quite muddy to my ears. Like a blanket would lay over them.
It's 2 McCarty pickups. I set them to the height (3/32" and 2,5/32") recommended by PRS but still...
Are there other McCarty players (pre 57/08) with the same impression or is it just my ears?
Any pickup recommendation to get a clearer sound? I play mostly blues & blues-rock, no high gain stuff...
Thanks for your help ;-)
