Omg yes. While I appreciate people are trying to figure out Lemmy and federation there should be a space for them to ask all those types of questions and it shouldn't be AskLemmy.

Thanks!

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.

When I play it not through the amp it sounds fine that's why I suspect pickups but it very well could be something other piece of electronics.

Not saying the pickups are more expensive than a guitar. The question is more does it make sense to put $200 worth of pickups into a off brand Les Paul. Or do I put that 200 towards a better guitar that's all.

If you have recommendations on cheaper but good sounding humbuckers that would be appreciated.

That's a great question! So the issue I'm having is that the sound coming out of the guitar via the amp sounds off and by off I mean off key, out of tune. So I tune the guitar and play (not thru amp) it sounds right. Plug it into the amp and play, it sounds off. Plug in one of my other guitars to the amp and it sounds fine. All I can think of is something ain't right with the pickups.

How'd you get into ghostwriting?
