Step 13Problems, Problems, Problems
I'm glad I tested it with only one string to take off.
I strung it up and the string was laying right on top of the pickup! And that was with the rubber part just snug. If I lowered it anymore the pickup would have been loose.
So I pulled the bridge plate off again, took the rubber POS-SOB's off of there(lol) and stuck the original springs back on. Good deal.
Don't forget to set the pickup height to whatever is recommended by the manufacturer.
ALSO, there is a HUGE difference between the neck pickup and the bridge. The neck pickup is so weak compared to the bridge one that you pretty much have to keep it on one or the other; switching requires you to change the volume of your amp in order to compensate.
Try to change out the neck pickup to a hotter one if you can afford it.
