Dropzone Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 [quote name='shinhoman' timestamp='1317599788' post='1392304'] just tune with the 12th or 5th fret harmonic [/quote] I was trying that but it didn't like picking it up at all, however I did buy the cheapest i could find so maybe a more expensive one will work, just wondering if anyone had particularly great success with one. Definately love the idea just need the right model. Ta Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dropzone Posted October 4, 2011 Author Share Posted October 4, 2011 Not worried about size just need it to pick up the lows, but thanks for looking. Ta Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Try pinching the clamp bit so it's tighter on the bass, see if that improves things. The one i have doesn't grip the bass tightly enough and doesn't pick up the vibrations as a result. If that helps then you could glue a rubber pad onto the clamp so it grips better.
