Hi Everybody,
I am fortunate to have a 63 Starfire III with DeArmonds. My teacher put some doubt in my mind. I am grateful, in advance, for your opinions.
I have the action set pretty low and the sound is most excellent. However, the strings are a scant 1/8 inch (maybe even 3/32") off the bridge pickup. My teacher mused that the magnets might be effecting the sustain by being so close. With the exception of sour notes and fat fingers, the tone seems great to me.
Is this anything?
I have attempted to post some pictures.
thanks a bunch,
Ned
(edit to make clear that it is the bridge pickup in question)
