Hi guys, I was hoping some of you could help me with this issue of mine.. I recently got a NOS 05 RGA321 and have swapped out the pups for an air norton and a D Sonic.
However, I have difficulty positioning the D Sonic with the bar facing the neck as the pickup rout for this guitar seems to be elevated with a tiny passage for the pickup wire to go through. As such, the only way the D Sonic will fit is with the bar facing the bridge since the wire of the pickup is at the lower right side of the bar end...
I know this seems like a very obvious question and that my only choice would be to carve a bigger route for it to be placed the way i want it.. but I have seen quite a few people with RGA121s and with D-sonics installed with the bar facing the neck and I would like to know if you guys did it without any routing.
Or is this strange route, albeit a nice touch only on RGA321s? Even on my other prestige RG2570, it had a normal rectangular empty route without an elevated platform with a small passsage for the wire to fit through..
Any input is much appreciated!!
