I recommend you experiment to find your sound.The factory settings are a general setting to suit the masses but maybe not exactly your needs.I like to set the treble side of the pickup where it is almost touching the thin e string when fretted at the last fret.I set the pickup lower on the bass side to avoid too much magnetic pull which will the guitar sound weird and out of tune.I do this for each pickup and make sure that they are all even in volume.This suits my needs since I like to have the maximum output form the pickup to drive the amp harder.Lowering the pickups reduces the volume somewhat and the midrange attack which could be a great thing if you want a cleaner output from the guitar at the expense of some ballsiness.Don,t be afraid to experiment...you can always set the pickups back to factory specs.
