Has anybody tinkered with the height on their NF-53? I'm still in the honeymoon phase and love the guitar and really don't want to adjust anything but I noticed that the little e string is nearly touching the top of the bridge pickup. Its about.75mm from the top when I press the string down at the 22nd fret. Soundwise I don't have an issue with it at all its more of a visual distraction but any advice is appreciated. I have a lot of T style guitars and I usually have the bridge pickup set around 1.5mm

Dang... I still haven't adjusted my NF53 nor my Myles Kennedy...

Still have to tinker with the SE NF3 as well. LoL!

I'd okay around with it some!

So how do you like your SE NF3? It may be my next purchase but not sure I can get along with the wide thin neck. The NF 53 neck feels perfect.

I love the feel of the neck on the SE NF3. The pickups are a lot hotter than I expected, which gave me a greater range of pickup height adjustments! Great little guitar!
 
I lowered the neck pickup a bit to balance it out with the bridge pickup. The bridge sounds great as is.
I love these pickups. They sound great and give me something different than my other guitars.
