Silverfox Brightness

[ichilton]

Just finished a Silverfox (Barber LTD) build and am testing it before boxing.

It sounds good, but it seems to be quite bright - i've got the tone control on minimum and it's not bad, but if there was more turn, i'd still want to take it down a bit further.

Is that normal for the Silver, or have I got something wrong somewhere?

Also, and possibly related?, but my presence trim pot doesn't seem to make any difference at all.
(the mid and bass ones do have a noticeable difference but I ended up leaving them in the centre).

I measured the resistance on it and it's 11k at full turn, but I can't hear any difference at all - is it subtle or do I have a problem?

Thanks,

Ian
