kidblast Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 see if these help http://www2.gibson.com/News-Lifestyle/Features/en-us/pickup-height-0514-2011.aspx the long and the short of it is: the best advice is to start with a gap of 1/16 inch between bridge pickup and strings and 3/32 inch between neck pickup and strings, and this makes a good general base from which to launch your own experiments. keep in mind these are all starting points. there is also another setting where you adjust the poles in the humbuckers to match the fret board radius to achieve a good balance across all strings http://www.seymourduncan.com/blog/the-tone-garage/fine-tuning-the-adjustment-of-passive-humbuckers/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
