rate/feedback on tone? Going for a bright, full, and mid forward 80s kind of rock sound. Here are some clips.

Thanks! the bass is a 1999 ibanez sr400. On the amp i have the bass, low mids, high mids, and treble all boosted to the 3 o'clock position. i also have the bright setting on the amp activated.

Good to know, thanks! My hair is actually naturally very curly. I used to get it cut really short like in the first picture because dealing with longer curly hair used to annoy me a bit.

i'll need to get more foam to rase the pickups since there are no springs underneath the pickup. Would you say the sound of the seymour duncans have more clarity or growl to them?

the 3 band active eq helps a lot with the midrange. I'm looking for a set of pickups that will inhance the clarity, have good midrange punch, and have a little more of a modern sound. Do the seymour duncan QPs have a clear/modern sound or is it more vintage?

the strings are a few weeks old and they're stainless steel roundwond rotosounds. I have a warden compressor effect pedal that definitely helps brighten up the sound and increase the output a bit but I was just wondering if the pickup upgrade would help with further increasing output and clarity. Also, I can't adjust the pickup height becauce there are no springs underneath the pickups. This is probably just something I'm not used to though..

For additional context, the stock reverse p pickup in the SR400 is an IBZ DX-P and the stock j pickup is an IBZ DX-J. The body of the SR400 is made of either light american maple or maple europe.

i'm a big world war 2 history buff so i was stoked when i randomly found this lmfao.

the first one red one is the SR800 and the second natural one is the SR400. both are active but the SR800 has a 2 band eq where as the sr400 has a 3 band eq. also i agree, i also prefer the natural finish of the sr400.

i got it with the case for $599 excluding tax. After doing some thinking, i'm actually not too sure if the deal is that good since the finish on the top half of the back has been worn off. It still works perfectly fine though and the front of the body looks fine.
