GCX with GMajor Volume Loss
Posted: Wed Oct 19, 2011 10:47 am
Hey guys,
I've been running a TC GMajor 1 through my GCX since I put my rack together a few years ago. In that time I've gone from a Mesa Triple Rec to a H&K Statesman and have had volume issues with both heads whenever the Gmajor is activated. It runs mono through the effects loop and all is fine and dandy when I bypass the GCX (by disassembling the entire rack), however when I activate the IA for my GMajor, I lose about 20-30% of my volume. I've rewired my entire rack twice with different cabling, tried using the Gmaj through every loop and have had the problem consistently. It's something that I've just more or less dealt with, but there's also a loss in punch and high end that worries me. Especially prominent since I've started using Telecasters.
Is there any way to get around this, or is this a fault of the TC piece?
Thanks!
Royce
