Didn't know whether to post here or in luthier's lounge, but I'm having an issue with a pickup. I just had a MiSi trio put in my LoPr soprano. I have had the same pickup in other ukes and have actually self installed one with no issues. Plugged this one in when I came home from the guitar shop and it is so quiet with my amp that I can barely discern that it's actually working. If I adjust the volume up and down on the amp, it makes very little difference. I plugged in one of my other instruments (that also has a MiSi btw) and it works just fine. Went back to the shop and the installer said "yeah, it is kinda quiet, but it's nothing I did. Maybe it's a problem with the pickup". He plugged it into a huge amp and it sounded louder than my Roland street cube, but it was still quiet. The installer wasn't interested in investigating the issue any further. I'm wondering what the problem might be and if I should have someone else look at it. What do you guys think?
