Hey guys, im hoping maybe ya'll can help me out. I have EMG's in my epiphone standard and i like how they sound overall, but on the emg 81 at my bridge, it just sounds WAY, and i do mean WAY, to bright and "thin". This is especially evident when i am playing cleans.

Would replacing the capacitor with a lower value help any?? They are currently a .1 value. Now i know that since these are active pickups they "need" a higher value cap, but would trying something different hurt anything?

Also if its possible what types should i try out? I would love my emg 81 to sound a bit warmer.

Finally i am very happy with the way my emg 85 sounds so would it be ok to just replace the 81's cap?

Thanks for any help, i really have very little knowledge on this subject.
