I use the clean fender sound (somewhere between Albert lee and Hank Marvin) with standard USA tele & strat. I'm trying to squeeze every last ounce of tone variation from p u height adjust. Amplification is a Tech21 Sans rack set to fender twin.
I fluked a great b + n 'Galveston' sound on the tele by raising the n to the max and lowering the b just to minimise scratching by the E 1st string however it disappears with a part turn of adjust.
The strat is all over the place in n m b combinations although each is ok by itself. I Lowered all the pickups to reduce the output level and this seemed to clean the tone a little.
The strat pups are all about 4mm off the open strings and the tele about 3mm.
Anyone up on the general rules and the dark art of all this?
