Got a t486 and felt in love with it, plays amazing, looks awesome, sounds great acoustically!!
But plugged in it sounds very dark, especially on the neck pick up(I struggle to make it a bit bright and it’s very loud comparing to bridge pickup, which is more balanced...) And now reading about it, I see most people are saying it’s a bright guitar(SD jazz is a bright pickup).
Anybody has an idea of what could be causing this? Is it the pick up height(tried to changed it to not much effect), the amp, wiring, pot problem? Maybe a default somewhere... Or is it normal.
Watching videos again, others does sounds brighter than mine...(and with darker settings on the amps).
I was thinking of changing pickups but I guess first I should check if everything is ok with it...
Any ideas will be welcome
thanks
