Help! Albert Lee MM90 tech question

[rivieradaddy-o]

Greetings and Happy New Year to all,
I have just purchased my first EBMM guitar--an Albert Lee with MM90's. Love It!
However, it seems to me that the middle p/up doesn't "pick-up" or amplify the high E string as much or as loud as the other 5 strings. The guitar was purchased used, and the screw directly under the high E string appears to have been raised previously, perhaps to try to address this issue. It still is the weakest sounding string when that P/up is selected. Other two P/up's seem OK. Any thoughts on the subject? Thanks you for any help you may give me...all I can offer in return is a suggestion..... go to YouTube and check out the video of Curtis Mayfield performing "Superfly" live.....
Best Regards from Torrance, California,
Rivieradaddy-o

Hi RDO and welcome to the Forum and of course the Abert Lee Owners Club (ALOC).

For what it's worth I have just plugged in my AL with MM90's and it doesn't have the same problem.

The pickup itself is no higher than the other 2 p/u's and the screw in the pole piece is not raised one bit.

I guess you have put new strings on it and the string fits nicely in the nut and string saddle?

One rule on this forum - POST PICS OF YER ALBERT !!!
