Then what IS the resistor there for when in series?.

Putting the cap in resistor in parallel affects the taper of the pot, putting it in series doesn't. Whether or not this is a good thing depends on your pot taper and personal preference.

Here's one trick I learned about treble bleeds, instead of bridging the input and output of the volume control with the RC network, bridge the volume input and the unused lug on the tone control. That will stop the "treble sheen" problem when neither your volume or tone are on 10.

That was Frank's variation.

It creates a rather correct modern wiring behaviour but then I found the tone pot requires adjusting to suit the different volume knob positions. I also found this mod to have more treble sheen than other variants with all knobs all set to max on the dial.

Has anyone found upgrading to a similar design pup as the Pro Bucker making an improvement? I’ve been playing the LP a bunch lately and the tone is rich and creamy.

What would you consider an "improvement"?

The ProBuckers are nice pickups and you seem to enjoy them. Why change?

I thought the grass was always greener on the other side.
