Hey guys,
This is my first post on GMC
I have this question that's been bugging me for awhile now and I'm sure that one smart fellows would be able to shed some light on the situation. I've been working a lot on doing hammer-on and pull-off exercises and also doing a fair amount of the beginner tapping exercises.
My problem is that it seems that no matter how hard I press down, I really can't get a good solid tone out of my High E string. However, it's not nearly as hard for me to get the loud and clear tone when doing the tapping on the B string. There's just a huge volume difference between the both the High E and B strings when doing tapping or just hammer-ons/pull-offs in general. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Here's my Gear Specs to help out:
Guitar: Ibanez RG270
Pickups: EMG 60/81 (Bridge pickup selected for tapping)
Strings: .009-.042 D'Addario EXL120's
Pedal: Zoom 606 Multi-Effects pedal
Amp: Line6 Spyder3 15W Practice Amp
I look forward to talking to all you GMC'ers out there. Thanks in advance for the help!
