What factors affects the pickup's eq, bass, middle and treb? I know dc resistence, resonant peak and magnet type come to play, but what else?

TO, I'm posting here in public since perhaps there are others who might be in my situation. I also post in the ti*s and cli*s section so I don't have to listen to some of the opinions in the OT section.

I have a strat and wanted a slightly heavier sound , so I got 2 hotrails (wants the best of both worlds) I wanted a slightly funky sound as well,so I add in a duckbucker on the bridge.I used a schaller 7 position switch I now have a grubby sound that is loud on the neck and middle and an in audible bridge pick-up.I have checked the circuits and all is ok .. The bridge sound livley but low in amplitude compared with the hotrails.I assume I have made a fundimental mistake with my choice ..Can I please get some advice on why these dont seem to work together and what should I go for to make my next pu unit....I am sticking with a fender switch thats for sure...

I've gotten in a dilema and now still deciding on which pedal to fit.
I've not really tested all of them but it seems that modding a pedal will be better.

I bought this Roland box yesterday. this thing is amazing....what a great toy!

I've got a 50's ES175, and am struggling to get it sounding really good. I swapped out the rosewood bridge for a tun-o-matic, and that made a TON of difference. I tried lighter strings (11's) but that sucked, so I restrung it with DR Pure Blues 12-52's.

Red 18 space 3/8 road case with heavy duty casters mounted to a 1/2 piece of plywood for strength. It has to go, but I'm not giving it away, so unless someone grabs it this week, off to the trash it goes. 70.00 Plus shipping.
I'll throw in an SKB 4 space drawer with it for an EXTRA 25.00, that's your decession.

I've been placing my compressor after my overdrives in the signal chain, but the great Pete Cornish says in the latest edition of Guitarist magazine regarding his rule of thumb for effects order, quot;A compressor first, because that will even out the guitar's output. Any high-gain distortions come after that, then dropping down in gain as you go along.quot;
