It's that time again folks! I picked up the Transition bridge model just before I finished building my guitar. I tried it and, obviously, wasn't totally satisfied with it. Overall I really dug the note separation and open quality it had combined with a healthy heap of aggression, but the high-highs were a bit shrill and the lows were a bit obnoxious as well (my guitar has a big bottom as it is, so this didn't help). After noodling around with many other pickups (some of those adventures I've detailed on this forum) I got the idea to drop the large ceramic stock magnet and put in a regular thin one. No surprises: tightened lows, smoother highs and a slight drop in power but no real change in the voicing and no loss of clarity.
