Took my new mint '07 R8 in for a repair to some deep scratches in the headstock put there by my wife (that's another story though) & when I received my guitar back they had lowered my neck pickup. Low & I mean very low. I could see light between the pickup cover & the frame that goes around it.
Why would they even touch my pickups? Did they do a swap on me with something else? I know a lot of you will say well how's it sound? Thing is I only had this guitar a few hours before the restringing incident that ultimately led to the deep headstock scratches. It sounds ok to me but now I'm worried.
Is something up? I know they put new strings on, they had to remove mine to get to the scratches, but, did they also do a lot more than just a repair? How can I tell for sure I've still got my original pickups in my guitar for certain?
I've already looked in the back cavity at the soldering work & it's hard to tell as only being a few hours old before it left my hands it's my first time seeing this one, though I've seen many. It does look cleanly done.
What's the best way to find out or am I worried about nothing? Why did they adjust my pickup height in the first place?
Arrrrgghh. I swear this R8 seems to be possessed or something.
Thanks for any & all replies.
