    Is your wirimg correct?
    If you are happy that your wiring is correct I would suggest the following.

    Get a multimeter plug a good quality lead that is working corectley into the guitar turn volume and ton up full take a reading across the hot and ground.
    Om SD site the following information is given


    STK-T2B Hot Stack Four Con. Split: * 10.7 k
    Full: 21.4 kSTR-1 Vintage Rhythm Single Con. Cloth : 7.3 k


    Have you installed a switch to split the bridge pickup?
    If not perhaps its wired to constant split
    If your wiring is correct and everything is working well you should get in or around these Values
    7K neck
    10K bridge split
    21K bridge full

    If you are getting these readings perhaps the height needs to be adjusted to get a good balance between the two..

    See how you get on if you have any question I would be happy to answer them
