This is my first electric. I finally assembled all the pieces yesterday and sat down and started to play. My amp is s Bassbreaker 007.
My first experience was wow, a really nice rich full sound. However, as I played through several songs and exercises I noticed a significant dead spot around the low A. This starts at G# and continuous up to E or F on the D string. The low E by itself produces a booming resonant tone that changes to dull as I move up to A.
I have pretty much tried every setting I can think to do. All the pickup settings that are possible and while each setting produces a different overall tone the balance remains off.
If I crank the bass on the amp while that brings the A in better balance with the upper register the E goes over the top. The mid has no effect.
I don’t think that this is normal but I’m not sure at all how diagnose the problem. So I thought I would post here to see if anyone has had a similar situation.
Thanks in advance.
