I'm really not sure this is normal. It sounds very muted and is about 1/3 the volume of the other strings. I've contacted musicman to see if they have any ideas or possibly just buy a new pickup.

Hi peeps Had a stringray for awhile and could never get it to sound good. Put some new strings on it and got it sounding loads better except for the E string. It's dead and lifeless and has much less volume than all the other strings. Looking at the pickup the pole under the string is much lower than the ones under the A D G strings. Any ideas if this can be raised up? And if so and one got a video demonstration. Thanks Matt 😊

Join a punk band? 🤔

You are a star sir. Thanks for the speedy reply. 😊

Howdy So my band are talking about experimenting with lower tuning...specifically drop A so they can use their baritone guitars. If if put this set of strings on my musicman stingray am I going to destroy it. 🤣

Thanks for the advice. 😇 Would the 500 have enough umph through the 8ohm cab? I'm new to this so I'm not sure what exactly goes with what.

Hi everyone Joined a while ago but just made my first post. Been playing bass for about 20 years on and off. Got back into it big time last year when I joined a new band. Just treated myself to a new ehb1506 ibanez which I'm really digging.

Hi peeps Looking for a new rig that I can move easily for smallish gigs. Only ever owned combos before and the whole amp/cab thing is a new world for me. I've spent the last few months looking at various options and have I think settled on this set up. Hartke LX8500 Hartke HyDrive HL410 I've priced them up on bax and I can get both with extended warranty for just shy of 1200. Anyone with more experience got any suggestions issues or any other advice before I pull the trigger? Band I'm playing in is a 5 piece with two guitars. Rock/metal kinda stuff but not super heavy. Playing small shows at the moment but obviously hoping to get bigger gigs in the future. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 😊
