Pole pieces on 500t

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have a 2004 Gibson Explorer with 500t/496r pups. I bought it 3 years ago with pole pieces on 500t all on different height. The 2nd string`s pole is the highest.

Is this normal or was somebody messing with it before me?

I would appreciate a photo of somebody else`s 500t pole pieces height.

Thanks,

Andy.

I'tll depend on the slant and overall height of the pickup and the guage of strings used.

 

Use should play and then adjust the poles with a screw driver according to which strings need to be made louder or quieter. I don't think there is a 'standard pattern' just one that suits your set-up and your ears!

Yes, but I just wanted to know what is the factory standard. Anybody from Gibson here?
