Another setup question

[Sub1 Zero]

Well, whoever set up my silo last did something weird. The saddle for the high E is actually canted outward, positioning the string uneven with the pickups slightly and giving it not a lot of breathing room near the edge of the fretboard. Also, I notice the difference with my picking hand, as theres a slight bit more of a gap.

Any advice? Thanks guys

If they are the vintage trem saddles with the V indent that the string sits in, check the position of the V relative to the other saddles.

When I first got my gremlin (ordered from a dealer in Georgia) I noticed that the V was stamped off center causing the string to veer slightly more toward the edge of the fretboard.

Since it was NOS and under warranty I spoke with Dan at CS and he sent a replacement Saddle where the V was correctly centered I replaced it and everything was fine.

Good Luck

its not the indent, but the whole saddle is actually canted outward

CS to the rescue I guess

Well, I'm thinking it's just a setup issue, or I would have just asked them. I don't want to bother them with something unless it's important...
