Hi all,
Every pickup I ever tried on a mandolin or ukulele gives the same problem, namely an annoying thud when finger or pick hits the string. Ages ago I borrowed a little EQ gizmo from a friend which sorted it right out. As I recall it gave a cut at about 75 or 80 Hz.
Is anyone familiar with the thudding thing? And does anyone know of a fix?
My playing is not heavy handed, so the solution is likely to be hardware based!
Anyone know of an inexpensive EQ that might do the trick? I looked at the guitar and bass guitar EQ pedals from Behringer but I'm not sure if either cuts quite the right frequency range...

Any of youz geeks know enough about this stuff to give me a clue?
Thanks very much.
