The importance of pickup height, if you want Moby Dick chirp!!!.... but seriously, this quick vid is to point out how just one turn of the height screw can make such a difference... whenever I think I want more volume and power and I raise up the low E side of my bridge pickup I end up lowering it again because I cant get that Moby Dick pick attack chirp with it too high!... Listen for the chirp on the low E notes, just like Jimmy got on Zep II, then listen how its gone when I raise up the pickup slightly, and then listen how the chirp comes back when I lower it again... May seem subtle but when you focus on the pick attack chirp and not the notes its pretty obvious.... GOTTA HAVE MORE CHIRP!
