ricksterphil Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I have a Mike Lull passive P bass. It's developed an odd fault in that a couple of minutes after starting playing there is a rattling sound when I play open A (it's a 4-string) and the notes played below that on the E string sound muffled and lower in volume. I've check my leads and played another bass through the same set up as I thought it might be the pre-amp valves in the amp. Is one of the capacitors in the wiring loom giving up?

acidbass Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Is the sound there when the bass isn't plugged in - i.e. can it be heard acoustically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyJohnson Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 When you played another bass through your amp, same thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so, but I didn't try that test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
