I have a Framus Diablo Supreme X (2009 i think). Im not likeing the brightness of the middle/bridge pickup for the type of music im playing, dont get me wrong it sounds great but way to bright. To the point where when im at rehearsal if i forget to turn the tone down switching from the cool rails to the bridge ears start to bleed. On the tone/spliter pot there is a very small capacitor would swapping this out help at all if so what are your recommendations if not what would you advise (Any pedal ideas to would help....EQ/compression?)

(Quick edit) Going to try and lower the hight of the pick up and see if that works but still open for many more suggestion

Thankyou Guys
 
UPDATE

So i did some research and found that lowering my pickup hight did help to reduce some brightness but now i am also going to test some new capacitors out.

Heres the parts list


Once they arrive i will upload a video on youtube of the caps in action with the tone nob at different intervals.
Im very interested in how the dry Tantalum caps are going to sound.

Thats all guys.
 
Welcome to the forum, seanmorphet!
We need to get used with the new guitar stuff, since we used to be a 100% bass forum, even secretly hating guitarists for being too loud :-)
You seem to have good knowledge of how this things work, maybe you stick around and help this forum with your knowledge!
And this forum haz a rule - "No pic - No 'Wick" Wait... yours is a Framus, so we need another slogan. Anyway, that means if you don't post a pic, we will all asume you have a squier :-)
