Fender Telecaster Bass

You're right, it's a hot bass.
To put it in perspective, a G&L MFD humbucker is generally around 9Kohm, and those are generally considered hot.
Look at the numbers Legatta is posting.

Humbuckers, as a general rule are darker. Hotter pups as a general rule are darker.
And yes, that does make it harder to eq, and yes, your P bass is probably much mower output, and much easier to manage:)

Thanks for finally understanding me...I suck at explaining some of the issues i had with my Tele. Like I said it was a sad day I let het go and if I was in a stoner rock or loud rock/blues band it would be with me today for sure.
