I just bought an '89 4 string fretless Elan with a new set of d'addario chromes on the bass and that classic fretless tone(mwah)is really there on the G and D strings but not nearly as pronounced on the A and especially not on the E. Is there and way to boost the desired tone in the setup of the bass? (i.e. pickup/bridge adjustment) or, is there a particular brand of string that is known to produce loads of mwah over other brands? Thanks in advance!
