I have two issues with this bass: the tone can be very "nasal" and kind of thin; and it seems to get lost in the mix sometimes. I can get plenty of growl, volume, highs and lows, but I'd what I'll call "warm mids" are missing. There's no punch. I play through a WWoods into a 15" BagEnd. I've tried TI flats but I sacrifice other tones with flats. Now I have very old Dean Markley Blue Steels on it, which I know are twangy but these are probably 4 years old. WWYD? Different strings, tube preamp...? I would be greatly indebted! This has been a source of frustration for 20 years! I'm a patient man ;0) Cheers, Jeffrey jigme New Username: jigme Post Number: 7 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Tuesday, August 03, 2004 - 10:03 am:    Doh...delete this one, its a duplicate.
