Neck pickup – wooly

I picked up a used Morse a few weeks ago, and I’m having issues with the neck pickup.
It sounds wooly. Like muffled, as if there’s a blanket over it or something.
I can get it to sound ok, but then the bridge pickup is too piercing or bright.
I just can’t get it to work with all the other pups.
But if I tap in the slanted single with the neck it opens up, but is a noticeably thinner tone.
Is this a common thing with the Morse?
What I want is the thickness of a humbucker without the wooly flabby bass end.
Its fully stock btw.

Thoughts?
Suggestions?
Swap out the pup?
But with what?

I could really use a little guidance.
