Just been learning 'Just the 2 of Us' (Bill Withers played by Marcus Miller) . On the intro one plays the opening figure up the neck and finishes the riff on an F, 10th fret on the G string.
On the F I'm getting weird overtones, almost like too much sustain leading to feedback. Similarly on the E, a semitone below there's a weird doppler effect as the note seems to vary on and off the tone.
Using same newish flat wounds as on other P Basses but never had this issue before. Anyone got any ideas what could be the issue please? I've adjusted the pickup height to no discernible difference to the overtone/feedback. Action is not stupidly low and there are no weird tones when played acoustically..... I've tried damping the other strings to rule them out picking up resonance from the G.
Any tonal detectives out there?
