My pickup on playing the A string sounds too weak

Not too sure how to have worded this since I just bought a bass guitar and got it at a pawnshop so I'm wondering if the pickup position above the A string is maybe something defective with the pickup there. The E D G strings sounds all OK.

I have the split coil on the neck pickup and regular pickup on the bridge.

If I need to take a picture let me know and I'll try to upload one for you all.
 
Well, not enough info, so a picture would be great.

In the event you bought a P Bass, and the strings saddles are adjusted to follow the contour of your fingerboard, you may simply need to adjust the pickup similarly.

Best of luck to you.

PS- RC51s are badass.

OK, I'll get a picture on the bass in about an hour from now.

Thank you also for your reply.
