Keeping it weird
Just received an Agile Chiral Parallax 72527 today. It has Cepheus passive 7 string humbucker bar pickups installed. They are slightly muddy in the low/low-mid range. Is there an easy fix to gain some brightness? I looked in the control cavity and see a 2A 473J capacitor installed on the tone pot. Probably not a genuine "Orange drop" but a standard cap for the installation. I really don't want to change pups. Would going to a genuine Orange Drop cap make the tone brighter? Or maybe a cap with values that will let more high frequencies through? I posted a NGD thread mentioning the muddiness and another user suggested eliminating the tone pot altogether and lowering the pups. Any suggestions or links are appreciated. Thanks!
