I've got an '88 Charvel Model 3 - great guitar but the stock pickups were lacking. Its a S/S/H configuration, and I've already replaced the hum at the bridge with a Bill Lawrence L-500XL, which is a very versatile pickup but also quite hot. I'm looking to go non-single coil in the neck and middle and have already tried all of the Duncan "Rails" styles of pickups, which were way too muddy at lower volumes. EMGs have been recommmended but I really want to stay passive, since the L-500 is passive as well. Any other recommendations?
