You can try adjusting the trip pots inside to change the volume output from each of the pre-amps for the neck and bridge pickups in the bass. http://alembic.com/club/messages/16271/24781.html?1139017200 Jazzyvee | ||

Also, you might try 'leveling' your pickups: If you're hotter on the D & G strings, look and see if the pickups are 'up' on that side. I usually take a small ruler and raise/lower the pickups until they're the same distance below the E side and the G side, to give me a starting reference point. Then, adjust as you like if it's boomy or weak on one side or the other to your ears. Between that adjustment and the trim pots, with a little tweaking you should be able to dial in exactly what you're after. As always, it's better to do this with new strings: When it comes to fine-tuning, you can't trust what old strings are saying. J o e y |
