I changed my 70's Nat. LP with 59's 10 years ago. Sounds very clean in my Fender reissue Blues Deluxe but I can't get that warm feeded back out of it like I got out of a friends standard Les Paul. Is the pick-up not HOT enough, to HOT or is it something with the amp which has been recently set up? Please help I am a player not a ele. junky.

Put some unpotted 59"s in that guitar and it will give you a more open tone with nice feedback that sounds very musical when you push the pickups with some volume .
Best thing i ever did years ago and it really woke up my guitars switching to unpotted pickups.

Re: L.P. 59's and a Fender Blues Deluxe?
theres probably a few things going on. your 70's lp is probably much brighter and harder sounding naturally than a newer one.
the 59's are alnico 5 paf type pups which are vintage output and have a clean mid range.
if you cannot adjust the amp to get the sound you want, you probably want hotter pickups
