Too late for now....But theres always time to buy another guitar down the line.

Congrats on your purchase the Sienna burst is one of the nicest of Fender's finishes.Maybe the Sienna isn't one of their usual finishes for that model as everything else about the guitar is the same as others I take it. BTW your Epi Les Paul sounds muddy? Every Epi Les Paul I've played yet has been as clear as a bell when played clean but sounds great when put through a cranked amp or overdrive,my newest one actually sounds an awful lot like a PAF pup Les Paul but for $100,000 less.

Thanks. Yeah I sold my Epi. It was a Standard and was very bassy! I dropped the low E side a bit and just couldn't get rid of the mud. Made me weary of getting another Epi, which sucks cause I felt its fit and finish was very very high!

Probably has more to do with the p'ups than the guitar.

I would def say yes, but spending that amount of money(on a chinese guitar), I don't think you should have to spend the $ on pickups.
