Could it be the amp?
I did some testing not too long ago with some friends: 5 guitars through four different amps.
It was interesting - they all sounded good through all the amps. You could still distinguish the sounds you anticipated from different pickups but all was good.
That said - my FireBird was having some issues recently and because I love it so much, I assumed it was the amp. I was wrong. Loose wire inside - finally broke off and boy was that an ugly sound!
Good luck
