@sailicalvin @DarkInspiration Try lowering your pickup height. I had an issue similar to what you’re describing, lots of weird overtones that sounded like the guitar was out of tune once the amp was on, but it was in tune when played acousticly. Worth a shot, doesn’t damage anything and it only takes a minute or so.
Not going to be that guy just leaving it hanging. That was indeed the issue. It was super close. Adjusted it and now it sounds perfect. What's super weird is that pickups on my BC Rich are super close and sound just fine. Guess it is just the pickup spec is different. Thanks for the suggestion.
@sailicalvin Glad it was something simple!
