deanbean502 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I might be going mad or deaf! But when my bass is in tune (Standard tuning) the G on the 3rd fret of the E string doesn't sound in tune anyone else come across this issue?

[/quote] Two things can cause that, either the action is way too high and the string is being stretched too much prior to making contact with the fret, or the intonation is out.
