You’re compensating a bit based on the position with the 61 in the neck and the slightly fatter 54 Pro in the middle. That approach has some merit as opposed to going weak in the middle in order get ultra skinny 2 and 4 tones but sacrificing position 3 in the process.

I just got a Virtual Solo to put in the bridge with a 54 Pro in the middle and Heavy Blues 2 in the neck but don’t have a guitar ready yet. I plan on my usual tricks to maximize brightness for 2 & 4 and to defeat the dummy coil on the neck pickup when the tone is rolled up.
