I had a set of Seymour Duncan pickups put in my Ibanez by a tech at the local guitar shop. My pickup in the neck position can be moved by finger kinda back and forth. It almost seems loose or something. Is there anything I can do about it?

Sometimes aftermarket pickups are slightly smaller or the way the casing around it might be different. Sounds fine to me. But you could take the pickup out and put some rubber on the screw holding the pickup onto the guitar ( on Fenders the screw goes into the pick gaurd, les paul's have the screw into a small molding around the pickup) and then tighten the screw up so it compresses the rubber a bit.

dont worry,I had a 59 in the neck that tilted back and forth at a touch,but as long as its not too close to the strings,there won't be any probs.

Thanks! I think it will be ok. It sure sounds good.
