Wagner SR pickups lack bass !

I haven't noticed that with my set. Play with the heights of the pickups. There are a lot of subtle differences just by doing that.

 

The ones I have lack nothing. Best equipment upgrade I ever made. Did you get the RS Guitarworks pot set too? That helps.

 

Perhaps a phone call to Wags for help, before the public announcment was in order?

 

I tend to tilt my pick ups one way or the other to get more high or lows .. whichever way I personally prefer it to sound.

 

No way I would describe the SR set as lacking bass. What did you have in the guitar before ?

 

You have to really play with the pickup heights on those pickups. They're very sensitive to that, so before you get too ticked off, you might want to try a whole bunch of adjustments to them and keep trying them out.

It took me a two or three hours of tweaking to get all three "just where I wanted them"... and I'm known to be a picky bastid. May as well just admit that up front, and be done with it.

Good luck. I'd advise calling Wagner as well. He's really good about supplying advice.

 

email the guy!

 

You might want to resolder the connections. You might have a weak connection or two.

 

Yeah, I think you should work these kind of issues out with the maker before posting something like this on a Forum. That's quite a proclaimation to make.

 

to test magnets . grab an item that has iron .. and touch bobbins .. see if they stick.

also to test bobbins grab metal item, activate pick up and tap each bobbin - see if the make sound

metal item can be screwdriver
