Yeah I know. I meant more than I don't want to muddy things up even more when lowering volume knob.I should also add some more info. Treble bleed is used to retain high's as you turn your volume pot down. Not really going to fix the things you don't like about your setup.
I'm currently using 0.001uf and 100k resistor.Try a 0.002uF cap and a 100K resistor across the two hots on your volume pots.
Are they easy to open without risk of breaking them?Take out one of the extra magnets in the Pickups.
Thats what I do with those pickups.

What extra magnet are we talking about here? Humbuckers only have one magnet.Take out one of the extra magnets in the Pickups.

Best way to play around with electronics is to use a couple alligator clips. You can quickly and easily change the values of caps and resistors and listen for the best result.I'm currently using 0.001uf and 100k resistor.
I guess going up to 2nf would retain more treble?
Nope, the high output have extra magnets,What extra magnet are we talking about here? Humbuckers only have one magnet.
*SOME* do, but it is not the norm. The 490R and 498T are single-magnet pickups, and I've disassembled both within the last year for mag swaps.Nope, the high output have extra magnets,
In your experience, were they easy to open and do the swap?*SOME* do, but it is not the norm. The 490R and 498T are single-magnet pickups, and I've disassembled both within the last year for mag swaps.

I do not know every single pickup.
The first ones I modded was pickups from a 2001 Les Paul Classic.
Those had the extra magnets.
Also my Black Winters had the extra pickups.
Did you buy your LP Classic new? Never seen one with extra humbucker magnets from any year. Did it have changed pickups?I do not know every single pickup.
