Edginess of the B&E strings

I recording flat to analog tape through a Bellari Pre and a Neumann M147 large tube condensor. When playing back into my moniters, I have a harsh mid range edge coming from the high unwound strings (B&E). I have sent the signal through my parametric EQ and cut the 800 HZ a bit; it helped. I'm not satisfied with the results. I would like to try some other techniques. Maybe I'm doing something wrong too.
 
Yeah

Sometimes tube to tube (mic to pre) can have that effect from being in line. Try the mic in a solidstate mixer input for comparison.

I have a Audio Technica 4031 but I
get a mid range problem there too.
I'll look into your suggestions - thanks.

Some suggested using a desser in the
side chain of my compressor. Interesting
concept...
