Steinberger XT-2 pickup height

Pickup height will depend on several factors. Set up the action first, then tweak the pickups. On the Spirits it is easy because the pickups have springs in them to make adjusting simple. But yes the bridge height is usually higher than the neck due to string range of motion.

 

To get the sound I wanted, I had to raise the E string side a bit, YMMV.

 

Not positive but the truss may be a biflex. I do my own set ups and am going through some issues right now with this little bugger. Overall I really like these and see potential for mine if for nothing else but noodling around with. I do need it set up properly though and this can take some time and trial and error due to the foreign nature of the instrument to myself. Lots of help and opinions here in TB for just about anything Bass.

 

I got this idea for this here on TalkBass.


One of the best mod I've ever done (if you don't mind drilling an extra screw hole in your bass). Mine is on the other side because I'm a lefty.

 

Always. Learned on a standard righty bass, just flipped.
