I can't answer your question, just wanted to say your guitar is very much like my GPC-28E which has the same pickup, and I love it as well. On the few occasions I played it through generic bar house systems (before I stopped risking it there!) it sounded remarkably good with little tweaking, and of course in my home systems it's superlative IMO.
The relative lack of projection is partly the result of its being an Orchestra style with a less-deep construction--it ain't intended to be a dreadnought, blowing your socks off. This doesn't work for everyone but it suits me (and of course electronically it's not an issue).
One difference between yours and mine is, I wouldn't call mine bright. Too busy to check tonewood types, strings etc. at the moment.
