Hi all, Quick question for the know-how people. I'm fairly new to lap steel and I got myself a Guyatone D8 lap steel and I was wondering if there is any kind of adjustment that I can do to lower the pickups a bit. I must be heavy handed because when I play up the neck it tends to bottom out! Any help would be great!
Thanks for your time and information,
Laurent |

| If there's screws on both ends of the pickup they're probably for adjusting the height. At least that was the way it was on my Bruno Conqueror that was made by Guyatone. |

| Maybe you can raise the bridge. My Guyatone S6 has a bridge that adjusts...Jerry |

Can you post a picture of the pickup you're trying to adjust? That might give us a better idea of what you could try.

Hi guys, sorry for not getting back with a pic yet, I've been gigging all weekend and this morning had to be at work for 6:00am, very tired. Promise to post a pic and we'll solve this mystery.
Thanks again,
Laurent |
