jtv69 pickup balance


Recommended Posts

Using my jtv69 as a Strat, I set it up so switch positions 1-3-5 are just models, and 2-4 are  magnetic pickups. All modeled pickups are set at 0Db, and the magnetics are at standard height. However, the modeled PU's are MUCH louder than the mag PU's............... is this normal?

 

Thanks

Well, I'm gonna remove the pickguard assembly and peek under it. I removed the screws from just the pickguard, and lifted the end by the knobs about an eight of an inch, and raising it stabilized the volume discrepancy, even when tapping/thumping the controls and pickups.

 

Lower it back, and intermittent problem returns (only with magnetics).

 

I just don't wanna yank any wires. etc., so any tips/helpful advice would be welcomed!!!

 

 

Thanks!!!
