Members Vibroluxman Posted May 15, 2006 Members Share Posted May 15, 2006 try adjusting the pickups, either raising them on the quieter guitar or lowering them on the more powerful one. Should help even out the pickups and they're volume. You can even adjust treble vs. bass to get more clarity from string to string (even out the volume between strings).

Members stereotypy Posted May 15, 2006 Members Share Posted May 15, 2006 i use therefore a micro amp or any other clean boost after my germanium fuzz (of course) .. a volume pedal has the problem that it will cut some high end when rolled back... at least my morley does so.

Members Vibroluxman Posted May 15, 2006 Members Share Posted May 15, 2006 but wouldn't the best solution be to adjust the guitars before buying a pedal? I realize this is an effects forum, but can't pedals suck tone, and or change the tone just by being put into the signal path? If you're happy with how a guitar sounds, just want it louder in comparison to another guitar, I'd try the cheapo method first, which is to adjust the guitar. If there is a huge difference in sound, then I'd probably get a clean boost for the weaker guitar. Just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CicadaSilence Posted May 15, 2006 Members Share Posted May 15, 2006 I used an EQ when switching between active and passive basses in my old band. A volume pedal seems like it would be too touchy to use for such an application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ElvisIsNotDjed Posted May 15, 2006 Members Share Posted May 15, 2006 Why don't you just raise/lower the volume on your amp when you switch guitars?So, I see you're selling the Zero... You like the Mayo that much, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
