Hi, I´m from southamerica, and speak spanish. In my MIM standard, the A & B strings no cross exactly over the polepieces of the middle and neck pickups ( in the bridge pickup is Ok.) , and from me, the volume (of A & B strings) is low when selected this pickups. ¿Is a bridge spacing string problem? ¿any solution?. Thanks.

It's a pretty common issue, is it off by a lot? Can you post a picture? The neck could be off or could be the saddles, the nut, etc...

Thanks atolleter: is off around 2 mm in the neck pickup and less in the middle. I will try to send a pic. The guitar is a ´04 Mim standard, all stock with Satin Polyester Finish. Thanks again.

Once you post pictures, something will be able to help. Also, what do you mean by A and B strings, do you mean A and D?

2mm isnt too bad though, you should try raising the treble side of the pickups that sound weak.
