I have a beautiful P24 Trem Smokeburst Obsidian that can sound fantastic when dialed in, my issue is when playing out I often times have a difficult time getting the sound guy to get it right.
I use it to play "Wanted" for the first half of the song then kick it to the electric side for the back half. It needs mids and some reverb or delay. I want it to sound big and fat not thin and anorexic. It should not be that hard.
I find a similar thing going on with the whole mix in general. Last Saturday's gig had a pro sound guy provided by the club and a nice system. The over all sound level had my ears bleeding and waaaaay to much keys in the monitors. Did the sound check song three times .......very frustrating!
