Why no love for the riff raff?

[Steve-Mr Pig 2U]

I thought you said it was better now? the Mule neck is lower out put than a riff raff. I dont know where your getting the mud from... its impossable for it to sound muddy! how old are your strings?

It is better, but I dunno, its still not perfect! I think it might be the pots though, I'll replace em all with CTS after xmas or something.. I dont have a tone control hooked up the neck pickup either so it cant be the cap thing on that.

The Mule is mellower than the Riff Raff but not dull! I have a Mule with my Emerald and love the sound.  I put the Stormy Monday with the Riff Raff (actually Tim chose the combination - not me!).  I wonder if it is the soldering?  If you have a bad joint you could still get signal, but loose the top end because I think air in the joint acts like a capacitor (HJM will probably come in here and say I'm talking a load of b*ll*cks - but I am sure I heard this).
