Pickup height?


Just wondering what some of you have your pickup heights set at for the Paf Pro and Fred pickups.

I was using the gibson factory spec measurements but at 3/32 the Paf Pro sounded very muddy. The Fred didn't sound bad at 1/16.

Tonight I raised the Paf Pro up to just under 1/16 and it pretty much came to life. I've been trying to tweak the Fred to match volume but haven't been too successful without making Fred pretty shrill.

I measure by pressing the string against the last fret on the neck and measure the space between the bottom of the E strings and the top of the pole piece that the string is over.

rip out the PAF Pro and slap a PAF Joe in there instead ;-)

That's what I did. PAF Pros are boomy little buggers when they're in the neck position.
