DiMarzio EJ custom bridge DP212.

Does exactly what you want. Had one for about 10 minutes; the bats complained.

Have you heard these? A friend of mine was going to have them put in his Electrical, but opted out because of the expense.

get a danelectro pick up... say what you will about those guitars, but they are trebley as hell and about 1/2 of that comes from the pick up...

On the cab/power amp suggestion -

Seconded, if you mean running the amp through a full range cabinet (rather than a guitar cabinet). Nearly everyone who tries this does it for about ten minutes, then says "actually, that's a little more high end than I want". If you're one of those people, then you've found something you can dial back from.

Let me read that again.

Wait, does that make sense to you? I can't tell, because I just wrote it.

Anyway, ditch the Celestions for a bit and try a PA cab.

Yeah, one more cab suggestion...

I have a friend (I'm not going to name drop here) that has a crazy-as-all-hell treble sound...I mean, it fucking hurts my ears to be up close to the cab. Anyway, he's using an Acoustic cab, in addition to his regular cab, that only projects high frequencies. Don't quote me on this, but I believe that it is a Model 811.

Traynor also made something similar called the YSP-1 Sibilance Projector.

I would personally go with something like that.

My guitar player is using the EH English Muffin... It's very bright. Something like a 10db treble boost when it's eq'd "flat".
