Title: Correcting the pickup alignment on a Fender Strat
Post by: JP777 on May 31, 2011, 09:01:04 PM
Hi,

I bought a Mexian Fender Standard Strat at the weekend, which I am pretty pleased with. However, I noticed yesterday that the alignment of the strings is pretty poor on the G B & E strings on the middle and neck pickups (in particular the e string as the picture shows).

I bought the guitar with the intention of replacing the pickups with a HSS set anyway, but is there anything I can do to correct the alignment when I install the new set?

P.S. I haven't noticed any particular problems soundwise from the pickups, but it is quite annoying to me visually.

Thanks for any help
