Choices for a 2004 LP Studio

What do you think?
I've been playing it for about a month or so and I find the 490/498 combo to be a bit hot/harsh for my style. I use this guitar for Robben Ford type tones, so...
I put 59's in my semis and Fat Strat and I do love those PUP's. I was thinking of trying something else in this one. I have a JB/Jazz combo that I pulled out of an 81 Ibanez Artist so I could put the original Super 58's back in. I could drop them in the LP to check it out, but they seemed kinda hot for me too (definitely sweeter than the Gibson PUPs though).
So...more 59's? Seth's? What do you think?

Give the JB/Jazz pair a fair crack first. (Chances are that you will want less drive.)

If you want to try a P90-ish sound, either Phat Cats or P-Rails would give you it. The P-Rails would still deliver an approximation of a regular HB tone in series wiring mode. I recommend mounting P-Rails in Triple Shot mounring surrounds.

Thanks for the idea. I was playing with the idea of P-90's. I have the Artist (which is a hefty chunk of mahogany and a beautifully made instrument) with HB's, so maybe this mahogany body with P-90's would be an idea. I loved the articulation of the JB/Jazz, but I had to keep the volume on the guitar below 3-4 or they got too "modern" for me.
