Hey everybody. Ive been absent for awhile with work and life. But i have a question and looking for some opinions.
I have a se custom 24 that my my wife got me for Christmas and allowed me to do whatever I wanted with (i love that woman). So over the past few months, it has received prs locking brass post tuners, new tusq nut, brass bridge block and a set of SD hot rod humbuckers. Guitar plays beautifully and i really like the push/pull coil splitting on it. But the issue i am having is it seems a little too much on the treble end. When it is coil tapped, it sounds amazing, when in full humbucker mode the highs are just so....bright. like too bright and thin. I have tried various different strings, pickup heights, amp settings.
The guitar still has the factory cap in it if that matters.
Any ideas? No, there are no guitar techs in my area, its a very small town so i have to do my own work. But i am not scared to do anything and am somewhat proficient with my tech skills as this isnt my first rodeo rebuilding a guitar. I just havent had this issue before.
