    Welcome to Basschat.

    How old are the strings? Have you got the tone control turned up?

    Plus the pickups get closer and closer to the mid-point of the string as you go up the frets, so the sound gets less 'rich' or 'bright'. This is especially noticeable with the neck pickup on two pickup basses.

    You could try boosting the treble a bit more on the amp.

    Hello, thanks. The strings might actually be the problem, because i haven't changed them since i bought bass, so they are from manufacturer, I'd say they are like half a year. I'm gonna try turning treble more, maybe it'll help for now, while im getting new strings. Thanks for help

  2. When i play on E and A string on 12th and further frets i get a very dull sound and strings just don't ring, although i can make out the notes. It's like hitting an empty barrel or pot with different water levels. I tried changing the action and moving the saddle, but nothing works. And it's not something with hardware, because it's still there when im not even plugged in. Sorry for mistakes, english isn't my first language.

    On the sound file i play E string on 5th, 10th, 20th, again 20th, fret and then an open string. It's not very audible on the file because phones micro just can't really pick up the ringing on 5th and 10th fret
