on the sixth string (low E) at the neck
pickup position, and closest on the
first string (high E) at the bridge pickup
position. Adjust pickup height as preferred
around the measurements indicated,
with the pickup selector switch in the
middle position and the volume and tone
controls at their maximum settings.

Pickups that are set too high can cause many
kinds of sonic variables. To set them correctly, fret
all the strings at the last fret and use a 6” ruler to
measure the distance from the bottom of the first
(high E) and sixth (low E) strings to the top of their
respective pole pieces. The optimal distances you
want will vary depending on what pickups you
have, so use the outside pickup mounting screws
to adjust those distances according to this chart:
