A best bro finally got his dream guitars. Two Paul Stanley PS10s and a PS120. He sent the PS120 to the same cracked mirror guy that did my Dean MLF over a decade ago. And as always when dealing with this guy, my bro got back an amazing and beautiful real deal cracked mirror Paul Stanley from a true craftsman. My bro is over the moon about it.
But now the guitar sounds brittle as fuck, as to be expected. Not just bright, brittle. Granted,this guitar is a show piece and is displayed accordingly in a fancy shadow box with lights in his bedroom. My Deans all have a single emg81 setup and tho my cracked mirror is a little brighter than the rest of my customs,its not that noticeable because of the emg.
What would be the best passive pickup to warm up a brittle guitar? My boy loves hot pickups, but hot and warm seems counter intuitive to me(but I haven't used passive in a long time). Any advice would be welcome. He isn't a gear freak and isn't on forums so I'm trying to get an idea as to how to advise him. Note the accompanying pics as he would want it to look the same as the pickup that is currently residing in the guitar(solid poles in the front and adjustable poles toward the bridge). Also note he only stays on the bridge pickup,never using the neck.
Thanks for any advice you can give.
