If he likes the guitar, how it plays and feels, selling the guitar and finding one with pickups he likes and that plays and feels right and that he really likes is much more hassle and probably more expensive than simply spending $100.00 for a Duncan Quarter Pounder for the bridge and a GFS Alinico II Classic for the neck and two cents for soldering iron electricity. Or even $200.00 for a Quarter Pounder and Bare Knuckle Stormy Monday or Gibby '57 Classic.
And if a soldering iron doesn't scare him, he could put a 4-way switch it to get both pickups on in series and howl at the moon.
I have 16 electrics and all but three (once I get my 17th one, a Gibby SG) have had their pickups replaced. I have a ton of pedals. I have found that if a pickup makes you wanna barf, no pedal can cure its barfiness. And ...there is nothing magic about a Klon.
