George L's PF-1 pickup-trouble

Post by Bengt Erlandsen »

My 3rd string (G#) seems to be not as loud as the other 9 strings. Has anybody else had the same problem with that pickup?

What gauge string are you using?? Generally a smaller gauge will not be as loud. If you're using a .009 or a .010 try a .011 or .012 and see what happens.

I have a PF1 on my E9th neck of my MSA D-10, and I use a .011½ which works well.
