But nothing I did seemed to matter. I could take the highs out, boost the bass, and the quack was lessened -- but at the expense of the nice treble that my guitar has by nature.

You may be able to do it. But, I was not able to.

The Empress Para EQ is somewhat cheaper at about $249. But, it still seems like a lot of work just to get the pickup sounding right, at least to me...
You can't adjust the Q on the Rosette semi-parametric EQ meaning you have to take cuts that are too big to be effective! The Rosette came up short for me for that reason along with the lack of solid low-end compared to my Schertler's Jam 400.
