My bass guru indicated that the obvious and best way to get a good sounding PH out of your rig is to have a little grit in it (of course, assuming you have the technique correct), through some sort of distortion or overdrive. A very clean sound isn't going to produce that ringing bell-like tone that you would expect. Now obviously you don't want to have a full blown bass distortion, unless that's your style, but that was kinda what I was figuring. Any thoughts?
