wow I'm knocked out by the response - thanks @SpondonBassed, @TheGreek, @Dad3353, @bigsmokebass, @Teebs, @Misowaki, @Grangur, @BaggyMan, @HCC - there's lots here for me to try. First up I lowered both the neck and bridge pick ups under the G string and noticed some improvement straight away (hats off to @TheGreek!) - I ran out of adjustment pretty quick, so also raised height of the string a little. End result, definite improvement over most of the fretboard. I still don't think there's as much punch as from the other strings, but I'm encouraged now to tweak some more based on the feedback and see how much more improvement I can get. Will feed back. Thanks again, glad I joined. And @TheGreek - your joiner joke, oh dear 🤪

Hey guys, nice to meet you all. I'm looking for some advice about my Tony Franklin Fretless. It's a wonderful thing with awesome tone, feel and playability - BUT the G string lets it down. Just sounds dead compared to the others and no sustain. The open string sounds fine but any note you play especially higher up the fretboard has this problem. I've done the obvious things of changing strings and checking the set up from ground up, but no change. To me the problem is really confusing and defies all logic, but maybe one of you have come across something like this before? Grateful for your thoughts and recommendations. Many thanks
