I am so tired of this problem. I use 09's, abnd when I play live, my frickin first string is can hardly be heard when playing a lead. This has been a problem for twenty fucking years. I have raised the pickups on that lower edge, I have backed them off, I have lowered the saddle. Finally, I have had to resort to a compressor, and sometimes that struggles to get it up. This happens on both my electrics. Is the string simply too small to get a good magnetic signal? This is a problem with my normal pickups, or with my Lace sensors.
