Tone rider pups

I have had Tonerider pickups on my P bass for a couple of years.  Great value for money.  They work great with thump, depth and grunt on the bottom two strings. But just recently I've started to think that the response on the D and G strings is a little more treble and ... thin. So the presence isn't balanced across the full string set.  Now I've noticed it I hear it all the time.  Anyone else notice this? Or do i just need to get a life?

I think that`s Precisions in general, it`s always amazed me that the pickup is situated in the manner it is. I rarely play on the D or G because of this, as I have a very twangy aggressive sound anyway. Additionally I had Tone Riders in a MIM Precision and didn`t notice any extra thin-ness on these strings. I always raise the D&G pickup higher than the E&A, this seems to deal with it a bit.
