                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[No. The high E string is half-way between the pole center and its outside edge (treble pickup). The B is a little less off center, G is a little less than B, etc. I think that I discovered the root of the problem. The high E nut groove is spaced farther away from the B string (6mm) compared to an equal spacing between all the other strings (5mm). I think that the improperly cut high E groove forced the factory to set the saddle grooves off center. Anyway, I'm bringing it in to a local authorized repair center for warranty service. I'll let you know what they recommend if you're interested.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[I just purchased a new 07 LP STD and have been noticing that the high E string seems to fall off the fretboard quite easily if I don't play perfectly (which I don't). If I pull the string down toward the edge of the frets there is some room to play with, but not much. Not as much as other LP's I've tested since.<br><br>I noticed that the groove in the saddles are not centered on strings A through high E but are a mm or 2 to the right of center. I am thinking that if I were to replace those 5 saddles with ones with centered grooves that would solve the problem and free up more room on the high E string.<br><br>Any thoughts? Should I deal with Gibson; where I purchased it; or bring it to the local set-up guru.<br><br>Thanks for your help!<br><br>Matt]]></content:encoded>
