    I have an '09 american fender jazz and one of the pole pieces on the neck pickup is sunken into the pickup lower than the rest of the pole pieces. I'm not sure if this is a bad thing or if its just the way the pickups are. any input would be appreciated.

    thanks,
    tyler

    Nothing to worry about, Tyler. That is a common thing that happens.

    Nope it's smoked. The bass is now worth 50 bucks, but I'll pay your shipping.

    ^ Boy, you're full of good ideas today!!

    You CAN fix it, but unless you notice an effect on the sound, don't bother. You'd have to take the pickup out of it's case, flip it over, and push the magnet back out a little. Then apply a drop of crazy glue, done.

    I am known as the least helpful person in the greater New England metroplex.
