Members j powell Posted August 18, 2005 Members Share Posted August 18, 2005 electrical tape over the pickups will fix that if the poles are exposed. i did this to my g&l since when i get fired up on stage i tended to smack the poles, making a "click" that got soundmen angry. the upshot is that it looks a lot better without the big exposed poles!

Members Fran da Man Posted August 18, 2005 Members Share Posted August 18, 2005 Is lowering the pickup out of the question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PaulyWally Posted August 18, 2005 Members Share Posted August 18, 2005 Why don't you just raise the action? Or lower the pickups (if you can)? Or ease up on the strings a little bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. A good example is Bartonini pups. Most of them are blade stye but the use a plastic covering because at one time blades were (incorrectly) thought to be inferior to polls.

CMS Author Craig Vecchione Posted August 19, 2005 CMS Author Share Posted August 19, 2005 Turn up the amp and play lighter. Your fingers won't get fatigued, your tone will improve, and you won't have to {censored} with the pickups or action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members boy#152 Posted August 19, 2005 Author Members Share Posted August 19, 2005 I hate to {censored} wit the set-up, as it feels so cool strung low. I habe medium hands (huge cock, fyi) and I like it low...the pu's maybe could go lower. I will try the tape idea, and playin softer like a gay boy. thanks. rbtv all mature like Plato:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
