»»Wiring:
Using a two way (DPDT) miniswitch I was able to switch between the two pots of the concentric volume pot (250k / 500k). This replaced the tone knob, but for the purposes of this comparison, that shouldn't be an issue.

»»Little 59 sounding dark:
I actually recorded this whole demo twice. The first time, I thought the little 59 sounded too dark and realised the pickups height was very low (4.5mm away from string when pressing down on the last fret). I then re-recorded everything with the pickup at 2.5mm from string (when pressing down at last fret) which is what you hear in the video. The little 59 seems to be a dark pickup in my experience.
