Just learning how to use forums and placed the first two in the wrong place.

Thanks for your answers. Some good ideas I'll try, some others I've already tried.

I'm using DR Hi-Beam stainless steel, round core strings 45-105 gauge. I'll give nickle round roundwounds a try. Thanks. As far as practice, practice, practice goes, I've been practicing for over 42 years. Like I said, depending on the material being played I sometimes hit the strings hard and...

Both.

I have to keep the tweeters in my cabs in the off position and the treble not too high because I can hear the string hitting the fret when I press down on it. It causes a clacking or pinging sound when the string touches the fret. Depending on what I'm playing, sometimes I hit the string harder...

When I use the tweeters and treble to get a brighter sound/clarity, there is a clacking or pinging kind of sound when I press the string down on the fret. In other words, you can hear the string when it touches the fret. Consequently, I never use the tweeters in my cabs since they seem to...

I find this site difficult to navigate, to find answers and even pages I've been on before. For instance, I posted this question yesterday and it took me about 10 -15 minutes to find it again. Even though I put it in the search box, this page did not come up. I always have to just keep clicking...

If I turn on the tweeters in my cabinets or bring in enough treble I get a loud clacking sound when I press the string down to the fret. The only way I've found to get rid of it is to take out a lot of the treble and turn the tweeters off. Any suggestions as to how to get more treble without...

Check out a Schroeder 15PL (30lbs.) with a Schroeder 210PL (35lbs.) and plop a Gallian-Kreuger MB Fusion or a Genz Benz Streamliner on them.

I've been looking for lighter, smaller and more powerful cabs for a while now and the best setup I've found so far for that is the MarkBass Randy Jackson 15" (37lbs. 17 1/2" width) paired with the MarkBass 210 Club (28lbs. 17 1/2" width). Why the Randy Jackson 15" instead of the Club 15"...

I thought I had my dream set up when I paired the rear ported Markbass "Randy Jackson" 15" and the rear ported Markbass Club210 (they fit perfectly together) it sounded great but I was in a studio setting. When I played it in clubs, where we set up against a back wood wall, which is common in...
