P bass pick up problem

Recommended Posts

hello,

I have a westone passive P bass. It great and I don't want to change a thing about it.

The only problem is that a small bit of the metal from the pick up pole sticks up and catches my finger, just enough to make it sore after a couple of hours playing.
If i didn't like the bass so much I would have just taken a chance and sanded it down, but I want to be 100% confidant no potential harm can come from that before I do!

any advice gratefully received.

The pole pieces on this type of pup screw up and down if you insert the right allen key into the hole. Wind the pole up a bit and get a small file and take off any rough bits that catch your finger.

I'm not 100% sure, but I guess you can wind it out completely. If you can, try doing that and turn the pole piece over and replace it in the hole.
