Lawrence L 710 - Favorite PU Height

Post by Rick Byrd »

I’ve been using Lawrence L 710s since they were first produced. Initially on an Emmons push pull, then a Zum Hybrid, and now a Mullen G2. My question for you is what is your favorite distance between the top of the pickup and the bottom of the strings?

I always used 2 quarters stacked on top of each other.
Carter D10 8p/7k, Dekley S10 3p/4k C6 setup, Regal RD40 Dobro, Recording King Professional Dobro, NV400, NV112, Ibanez Gio guitar, Epiphone SG Special (open G slide and regular G tuning guitar) .

Playing for 55 years and still counting.

Thank you Richard.

2 quarters would be 8/64” since 1 quarter is about 4/64”.
