If you want brightness, forget about coated strings. None that I have tried offer as much brightness as uncoated versions.
The Martin Eric Claptons are a bit brighter than the standard Martin PBs. The new Authentics are brighter to my ear.
Going to a slightly lighter gauge may help.
Your problem does not come up very often. At least I don't see it much on AGF. Too much brightness, another story.
In general, 80/20s might be what you need.
If you have not tried one, a Tusq saddle may be the answer. To my ears, Tusq ups the brightness.
Good luck.
