I flat out love the bridge pickup on my new-to-me Collings City Limits. Detailed, ballsy, responds well to the tone control, just great.
However, while the neck pickup sounds good on it's own, in comparison to the bridge pickup, it's a bit quieter, and lacking in bite. With much gain, and I don't mean super high gain, it tends to get kind of vowel-y, nice sound, but I'd rather get that by turning the tone control down, and have full up be a different thing.
Both pickups are Throbaks, too expensive to experiment with replacing them.
Would raising it closer to the strings possible help? Any other ideas?
