It has nothing to do with the springs. You need longer screws.

You loosen them to keep them further away from the strings. When you tighten them, you are bringing them closer to the strings.]]> Guitar Repair and Maintenance Mike https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/installing-a-humbucker/#post-146643 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/installing-a-humbucker/#post-13979 Sun, 25 Dec 2005 01:36:54 +0000 Guitar Repair and Maintenance Ibanez19 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/installing-a-humbucker/#post-13979
