Afternoon all,
So, I'm getting the gear ready to go back to practice and gig when it's advisable. I love my SB14 - the narrow neck and middly sound (but with the 3 way active EQ) just works for me and my style.
But... The bottom E string is waaay louder than the other strings.
I have already tried :
- dropped that side of the pickup away form the string - but that decreases the volume of the A string as well.
- rolled off the EQ in the helix below about 80 Hz - also, affects the A string.
- got a set of heavier strings on order (currently using 40-95, ordered 50-105) and I'll leave the 95 on when I change)
So other things I am thinking about.:
- see if there's adjustable pole pieces in the stock MM/Sterling pickup. MM haven't got back to my query after a week so....
- fit a new pickup with adjustable poles.
But, Is there anything else I can be trying?
advTHANKSance,
ian
