Adjusting angle of pickups ?


Elliott

Recommended Posts

The middle pickup on my epiphone BB is at a weird angle.

Its hard to explain' date=' but the angle is lenghways to the guitar.

If that makes sense !

 

Help anyone on adjusting the angle ?

 

[/quote']Unfortunately a lot of humbuckers do not have a third adjustment screw for angle, some do, some Guilds used to have them. I added one to my motherbuckers so I could control their tilt.

if it's not flat.. if the top is not level.. if that's what you're saying.. you can do a couple of things..

sometimes I use a smaller spring and put it inside the original spring..

double springs..

sometimes I use a stiffer spring..

sometimes I use a piece of foam beneath the pickup..

sometimes I use the foam only on one side of the pup..

 

get it level before you put the strings on..

because sometimes springs wont do it.. and you have to get the foam the right thickness.
