Hey guys, I checked the forum looking for this but still not quite sure.....
My RGR1570 came with BNP direct mounted to the body. There was foam or weather stripping under them and they were compressed agaisnt it..you could even see the screw marks from under the pup pressed in. I play through an old solid state, but my chugging dies after a second....never any distortion problems when using emgs or dimarzios through basswood. All i could think about was that major tone was lost through the contact of body and pup. Would i be better off getting a new pickguard that i could mount the pups to? Or was something amiss with the mount of the pups? HELP!!!! I REALLY love this guitar and wanna get it straight!!! THANKS A BUNCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
