the29band Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Just acquired a JTV-59. Strings are 10-46, however, the low E sounds very bassy on all models. Almost as thick as a bass guitar. Is there any adjustment I can make with piezos on that string to mitigate this/ Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseyboy Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Not sure what you mean by “…thick as a bass guitar” I sometimes press around the piezo with a thick guitar pick while plucking that string and monitoring familiar model. If tone changes drastically between good/bad, it will likely require servicing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amsdenj Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 If it sounds fine with the magnetic pickups then either the piezo pickup isn’t seated properly, is not soldered in properly, or is partially defective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
