Godin 5th Avenue Kingpin P90 Cognac Burst SF [5.2 lbs] :: Dog ear P90 pickup adjust & setup

I'm a huge fan of hollowbodies and P90's.  This Kingpin came in with high action which was easy to correct via the truss rod and archtop bridge.  The non-adjustable bridge pickup riser was too high though, so much that the lowered strings were touching the pickup.  I removed the dog ear pickup mount and removed about 3/32" from the bottom and refit it to the top.  The trick is to not take too much off or the bridge pickup will not balance well with the neck pickup.
