Hi all,
I just got my Epi G-400 SG back with the new pick-ups a luthier installed (swapped out the Alnico V stock pups). Now, the '59 is cool, it has good response and cuts off quickly when I stop playing-great. However, the SH-5 has a noticable "low bassy" and somewhat fuzzy response on the 6th string, and any chords associated with the low E-string are fuzzy and lack clarity. I'm sitting at work right now after picking up my guitar at lunch so I didn't have time to give the SG a good work-out and check the height of the SH-5, but any info on what is causing this would be useful for me when I get home and check things out more thoroughly.
BTW, I was playing it through Digitech metal master and a Randall RG75 and Marshall MG100DFX if you want to know the other technical side of things, and D'addario .09-.42 gauge strings. I had to sell most of my gear to help pay off $6,000 worth of hospital bills, so I'm slowly building my rig up again.
