Testing out the new ESPM-1 build, and i noticed on a major difference in volume between the strings.
The Low E, A, and D strings were loud and the G, B, and high E were much softer, adjusting the pickups to counter only helps a little.
Not sure of what pups are in this kit, but guessing they need to be upgraded...
Anyone else have this issue, and rectified it?
is this happening in all the pickups?
I put a set of fender strings on my Starcaster last week that did this. The G, B and E strings were barely audible.
Turns out the strings weren't being picked up! I put and old string back on and the problem went away.
Yes, it is happening on both pups, volume and tone seem to work fine though....
Tony, i am going to put some new strings on tonight, see what happens, as the strings that came with the kit are on it at the moment.
Just wondering how strong the magnets are in these pups....
Changed strings to Slinky's and sounds fantastic... Awesome guitar and enjoyable to make, will be doing another for sure...
its an interesting phenomenon, I too strung up a recent build with the kit strings and got a very dull response from the g string. (No off colour jokes please folks).Quote:

(Throws caution to the wind) I tend to get a dull response no matter what garment I put on.Quote:
