SETUP TIP: When working on guitar electronics you need a quick and easy way to determine if you’re getting output from your pickups.
Being able to make these tweaks to your own gear will get you knowing your guitar better, and also save you some bucks that otherwise would have been spent with the guitar tech. Setting the correct pickup height is an easy adjustment to make on your guitar, and one that you should learn how to perform. Make sure your guitar is properly setup first before diving into these adjustments. It might be tempting to dive straight in, but adjusting the height of your pickups should be the last step on your guitar setup list.
