Adjusting Overall Sound on a Further
« on: November 10, 2008, 02:15:25 PM »
Hi.  I have a Further, and am having some difficulty really dialing in the sound I want.
No matter what I try, the sounds I am getting are very clinical and sterile.  If I get a big bottom end sound, the top is thin sounding.  I'm also having trouble getting a rolled back and bassy sound for playing jazz.
 
Are there any tips for pickup adjustments/trim pot adjustments, etc for getting a sound more akin to:
 
1.  A great 70's Jerrytone?
2.  A Strat-Like tone?
3.  An almost archtop, rolled back jazz sound?
 
Thanks for the help

Hi Charley,
 
If you have a moment to call me tomorrow, I should be around all day and can help you out - just a little easier with a real-time exchange on the phone.

Not yet.  But, Mica got contacted me right away, which was really cool.  Unfortunately, I have just been so busy, I haven't really had much time to really sit down, get on the phone, and do the necessary tweaking and dialing in yet.
