joescartwright Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I have an old Mustang bass which I love but the low E string lacks fundamental and clarity. There's quite a strong harmonic ringing happening on that string an octave and a fifth above the note and it occurs with open and fretted notes. I've changed the strings (flats) but no luck there. Is there anything I can do to fix this? I didn't know whether it would be a setup problem or maybe something to do with the fact that the pole pieces don't line up anywhere near the strings (E string in particular). Any advice would be very appreciated. Cheers, Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Bassy Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 As a dignostic you could tempoaraily raise the action on that string and see if it goes away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
