That's very true Schmange. Play around with yuor cab placement. You might try putting the back of the amp closer to a wall. This will help project any of the bass that is lost out the back... toward you. Along with that... I want to correct myself... in my last post I said the bridge pickup. I meant the Neck pickup. But either way. Turn your tone knob so that it gives you a warmer sound. This will give you bass. If none of this can get the job done... Get an extension cab. It may just be the lack of speaker area.... more speaker area means the more air the amp will move making more bass. Just some more stuff to think about.
