Nazgul pole alignment problems

[nacho7x]

Hi, as the name says, i have a problem with the alignement of the pole pieces of the nazgul and the strings( only e and b strings). The pickup is installed on a schecter C1 elite, that has a tune o matic bridge with strings trough body. I was wondering if the problem can be solved by replacing the bridge with a new one or this will be the same?
if anyone knows how I could fix this, it would be very helpful.

What problems besides a visual one is it causing?
Is there a volume or tonal problem?

Re: Nazgul pole alignment problems

yes, there is a volume loss when i bend the strings. And sometimes affects the sustain.

Really? You can hear it?

Not calling you a liar, just surprised since I've never noticed that.

Maybe its because i connect the guitar direct to bias fx, but its barely perceptible. This only affects the strings i mentioned. Also the string is really out of the center of the pole piece, on the "e" string it is barely over it. The guitar is properly set up, thats why i think this isnt supose to be happening

The Nazgul is a pretty powerful pickup. It should 'hear' the strings even if they aren't aligned. What is your string spacing? There is a Trembucker version with wider string spacing if it is really bothering you. If you bought it from an SD dealer in the US, you would be eligible for the 21 Day Exchange program.

Most tuneamatics are Fspaced in the 21st century, so use a trembucker (TB model instead of SH)

Little known fact.
