here is a thread that discusses pickup squeal:

I would think you would apply the material (wax or tape)evenly under the front and back of the bridge to keep things level.
If that doesn't fix the squeal , you night need to pot the pickup in wax.
Is it possible the bridge pickup was replaced? that might account for the mismatched outputs.

I just added another related post in the same sub-forum: My MFD went massively microphonic! Suggestions?
Hope this helps.

Thanks, a quick question. I have been trying to find parafin/canning wax specifically but only found wax that comes in blocks to make candles, I assume it is not the same??
