steviedee Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Hi just wondering if anyone knows to regulate the output volume a ray (apart from the obvious ). The problem I have is my fretted and fretless 4 stringers have a similar volume output but my 5 string is incredibly loud in comparison. I know I could just turn the volume down but I've played the fretted 4 for about twenty years and keep the volume at 9 o'clock so I'e got room to push it up and down as the tune requires same with the fretless. The 5 seems to hit the same volume at 3 o'clock and live results in the loudest bass in the world or no bass at all...... Lowering pickups.... do I just live with it??

Musky Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Maybe a replacement pot is in order. You do get some variation on the specs of pots, but yours sounds a bit ridiculous. I don't suppose it's possible someone has replaced it with a linear taper pot is it? Other than that, do 'Rays have a trim pot to control the output on the electronics?

The fun I have is that my basses are pretty close in output but at some venues one sounds louder and at other venues the other. Makes life interesting.
