Better than I had expected from an Epi Bass however it has a buzz to it that I don't like, try scooping your EQ.

If you want great slaptones go checkout a MM Stingray or an equivalent that has active PUs

I don't know. I like how your treble isn't so high it sounds really clicky like some slap tones. Maybe more high-mids and less bass and low-mids. Im not sure if I know what I am talking about.

Sounds a bit bland. Try scooping the EQ a bit more, maybe thumbing it hard & closer to the frets?

Just my $0.02

Pretty decent for a epiphone imo.

Ps I also dug the Canon in D.

I like that tone, maybe bump the bass back just a tad.

thanks guys. maybe because of the pup placement on the ebo, too bassy. :) thanks wonder steve, that was kinda old tho, used a pj pup combination on that one. :)

Yeah, cut the bass and boost the treble a bit and it should be good. Does the pickup get in the way of you slapping?

no. its ok to slap on this bass without hitting the pup.
