It is either going to sound terrible with no bass, or more likey the 4.7K ohm number is wrong. I'm betting on the latter.
Agreed. I've experienced K&K into a wide range of impedance. 100k was about as low as I would go to get a decent sound. 4.7K seems like it would produce a thin irritating sound. Like Jon, I assume it's a misprint and might actually be 4.7 MOhm. 4.7 MOhm might sound too bassy with with the K&K. But, it also depends on the K&k installation. It might be worth a try. Most of this pickup modification stuff is trial and error. I've tried "great" combination suggestions, offered by others on AGF, with little success. Conversely, people have tired stuff I suggested and told me it didn't work. It's truly hit or miss.
