Hey,
I'm pretty much stuck with the pickups I have on my guitar, a Bill Lawrence L500XL and L500R combo. They seem to have excessive bass response, so when I record DI tracks and reamp, there's this booming sound every time I palm mute. I'm using a baritone tuning on a 6 string Ibanez Prestige.
Tried the usual EQ tricks, but my base tone goes awry, so I'm looking for an alternative solution that tackles the problem at the source. Suggestions? Maybe I should lower my tone controls or something, I always have it dimed, seems to give better playing response. Also, lowering pickup height seems like the thing to do first and foremost, but those *&^$# pickups are just so large, I already had to gouge out sections from the pickup cavity to fit it in the first place.
Probably more of a recording problem than a live sound issue, but there you go.
