    *Please correct me if I'm wrong* My Icon has the same issue with the bridge PU. When I restring it next week I'm going to unsrcew the PU and flip it around so that the "staples" are facing the bridge. From what I can tell the strings will not be able to touch the pole pieces anymore after that.
