Majesty pickups are tuned to their bodies, right?

Hi all,

Thinking out loud here…

I recently purchased a MM Monarchy Majesty that is supposed to be tuned for (according to the spec-sheets) Sonic Ecstasy pickups. The newer model MM Majesty however is said to be “tuned” for a newer set of pups called “Neck: Rainmaker” & “Bridge: Dreamcatcher”.

So my question is if both sets of pickups were specifically designed & tuned for each body they went in, shouldn’t both sound really good with the body they are sitting in now? I mean, I’m asking this because if the above is true, then buying an upgraded (newer) set of pickups might not work out in being the best choice, right?
