Was all ready to reply with standard humbuckers, but then realised my wiring for series/parallel was a bit wrong. I've fixed it now, so can report that they're much louder when in series, less bright and it's almost like the whole frequency response shifts downwards.
The effect seems to be pretty much the same with single coils, so should be similar for firebirds too. Have never used them, so not sure what their characteristics are and whether a bass-wards shift is a good thing.

Might be the wrong forum for this, but does anyone know what’s likely to happen if I wire two Firebird humbuckers in series, via a series/parallel switch? I’ve only really seen this kind of thing on single coil pickups before.
