Adjusting dog ear P90s?

BoneDigger · #1 03-26-2020, 10:40 AM

On my Guild X175b the first through 3rd strings are a bit overpowering. I know that the individual poles are adjustable, but if they are all the way down, is there any way to adjust these?20200326_112841.jpg

Raise the others and turn the gain down at the amp

Although they’re single coil pickups, they’re manufactured by ‘Franz’.

Just remove them altogether if necessary, and raise the others as needed.

Thanks for the help! I was able to adjust them enough to get things evened out. Now it sounds spectacular!

Excellent! I played my Gibson SG and Les Paul P90 guitars last night. The Les Paul sounds so sweet. I need to lower the bridge pickup in the SG though because the tone felt too hot.
