If you can, try your guitar through another amp, and you amp with another guitar.. Does your sound compare with what it was brand new.,,
Member 32916 mention a set-up.. If you had a chance to do the trial with other gear and you found the guitar to be the culprit and the strings have not been changed for a while, get you some new ones.. Worn and dirty strings can deaden the sound. If you are lucky that did the trick. If no,t go the set-up route. String and pick up height relation can muddy your sound. have your tech check the set up to see if a set up is warranted. You may have a jewel.. Good luck, hope you get things rocking..
