This might sound silly. But try some 500k pots on those MIM ceramics. I am not sure what the ones are I swapped out of my classic Vibe 60s i purchased used from Online guitar store music go round as it was listed as a squier SE. It was obviously a Classic Vibe 60s and i bought it 179. 2015 model someone tried to beef it up and mild relic on tbe headstock. It was and is a great guitar. Like you mentioned in a previous episode , i worry about the frets as i love it. So far ok. I bought player series loaded pickguard 6 months later (bought in 2019) and kept the old pups and loaded guard becuase other than the hype i was hearing about needing alnico 5 i changed them. These are cloth wired but look like the 2 bar magnet ceramics that MIM and squiers in japan used back in the day. I found they had a killer presence and output. I cannot decribe it but they were very well rounded. The only other thing i could notice was the pots were 500k. All of them. So maybe there is something to that being that they are ceramic higher output. Anyway im going to put these in another guitar soon. Maybe my kit but i need a better hb as its china hss guard. Cool channel btw. Intrigued by your hobby and your profession. Very cool. It might sound cliche , but you have something here and i hope you allow the slow crap yt algorithm to find you more. You will get better and better and be huge. I would inagine ? I like those necks too. I need to find a good replacement for one of my guitars as its bad twisted. A wallhanger signed BC rich i dont ever play lol. My son gave it to me as he didnt like it with all the signatures on it. Lol. Peace.
Not bad at all for a first attempt. I think making pickups is a deep and interesting rabbit hole to dive into, so enjoy your experimentation.
