seem's to have low volume true my amp all the other string are loud but not the 1-2string
it as the OP24+ pre-amp wath could be the problem

Location: Boise, Idaho | Did you check to see if it worked OK before you removed a shim? I had that problem after I removed a shim on my daughter's thinline, but fixed it by moving things around a little. The problem had something to do with the "white plastic thingy". So a search for that term on this board and you might find a solution. |
