When I put my ebow over my guitar string, no sound is coming! Am I missing something else? I have an electric guitar. Any ideas?

make sure your battery is fresh and the string is in the middle of the the ebow with the other tracks sitting on the strings above and below it.

You have to make sure the string you want to sound aligns with the indentation underneath the bow. You then gradually get the bow (on position, blue light) close to the string, since the mechanism of the bow is based on magnetically making the string vibrate. Also, make sure your guitar has good volume. A little distorsion would increment the effect.

Same issue here. I'm hoping it's defective, as opposed to me being super dumb :) Trying to play some Rocksmith...

Yuppers it can. I made mine fretless and put on nylon strings. I got the sound I was lookin for. Good luck with yours. My email addy is "guulaans@gmail.com let me know how you made out.

I use it with my guitar and can hear it over the strings. I then turn it down a little so if I hear the beat then my timng is off. Then sound of my stirngs block to click out. So it is quite ajustable. I suggest you go to a music store and try it out..

Nah man. I looked something up like that before. Its either your wiring in your house or you need to get your amp checked. Mine kinda makes a sound like that on OD2 on almost full gain and volume when my guitar is plugged in though. So check the wiring or you amp if nothing is plugged in and making that noise. Hope this helps.

When I got my violin and the strings were new when I tightened each if you watch a u tube video it shows you how to tightened the strings I did all the strings each one just a little till it was close to being in tune then I used a little pressure and pushed the pegs in till they were snug and if this don't help then u might need to buy the peg drops. I hope this works for you the violin is a very nice instrument from this company it has a great sound.

I got this amp a few months ago. I am using a classical nylon with built in pickup. I do get some feedback when it at about 1/4 volume if I get close to the amp so I ended up purchasing a soundhole cover to keep the amp noise from being picked up by the guitar pickup and it solved the problem. As you are using an external pickup that is not really an option for you. I'd try to just not face my pickup towards the amp

I actually didn't. I suppose I should have tried a better pickup, more shielding in the guitar cavity and better cables. Also, moving further away from the computer may help... or from the amp, for that matter. I don't use the Plug anymore.

can you tell if it is the string to low and hitting the fretts -- if so your guitar need set -up - you may adjust the back bridge some to raise the strings -- it can be also adj -with the neck trush-rod --ck on ''you tube'' it will show you how-- you have to find the noise then go from there

Make Sure Your arrow rest is centered perfectly to the string. Can You see the sight clearly through the peep?? When i Shot low, my anchor point where i put the release on my face was too high thus pushing the arrow down. that could be it. but make sure everything else is also in order.

I pop'd the high e string a few weeks after getting mine, it broke as I was tuning up and I went a little too far. I haven't had any other strings break.

Dale, there are two possibilities. On the back of the unit there is a ground lift button. Try pushing that. Also, make sure your guitar level on the face of the unit is set to at least mid point. If that doesn't work, you'll need to send it for repair. I've had my Live 3 for over a year, and it just stopped working in the middle of a gig. Hopefully when I get it back, all problems are solved. Other than that, I think the sound and voice control are great.

I wound't recommend it. I bought this unit and the input wire broke within minutes. Called - tried calling - Behringer. After about 2 hours got to speak with someone in Pittsburgh who said it would be too costly to fix. I send the unit back to Amazon (thanks, Amazon) which I don't like to do. I'd get something else. Go to a Sam Ash or Guitar center and they should have something that works in stock. Or try Crutchfield.

When I purchased my strings, I noticed that they were too long for my bow. What I did was take the string and tie little knots in them to shorten it. It does not harm the bow or alter the integrity of the string. I hope this helps.

Try a different guitar and cord. If it is the amp, then you got a dud. Mine has almost no static or fuzz. Send it back to amazon for a replacement because it is a great amp for the price.

Hi Mike - My personal experience with this pick up is with the violin model. No drilling was necessary and the sound is great. My bass player installed one of these on his upright and the sound is superb - the best bass sound I have heard. I'm 99% sure that all you need to do is loosen your strings, slide the element under your bridge and tighten your strings back up. As for the mounting of the line in adapter, just figure a way to mount it (tape it, etc.) to your tail piece. I would also suggest stuffing a piece of sponge or insulation between your tail piece and the top of your bass if the closeness of the mount causes a vibration. Have fun. It's a great product.

It is not loud. When I play live and plug in to the same D.I. box that other players have been using, my guitar can't be heard. I have to tell the sound person to boost my gain considerably, then it works. It seems a preamp is necessary.
