It sounds muddy and twangy at the same time.
Many Bass players are forced to use a guitar string for back up if they dont have a bass string. Its not that good of a mix.

Try getting thicker guitar strings and amps that handle lower tones like Ibanez and Peavey

itll sound weird but if u want bassier tones , get an octave pedal .
thicker strings would help too .

It will sound terrible. Try getting an amp where you can boost the low end, and buy a bassier guitar, like a baritone guitar.
