I don't think I have any settings that affects this. I attach a screen shot of 
lucid scroll bars in XEmacs (left) and Emacs (right).  The difference is 
apparent.  It could possibly be fixed by some X resource setting, I haven't tried.

Anyway, the Emacs native scroll bar isn't based on Lucid, and looks much worse.
