Dead pick-up - debbie - 02-06-2013

So I think my one pick-up is dead. Is there a way to test and/or fix it or do I have to replace the pick-up completely?

Why can't you ask a mechanic?

silly billy...

jk, is it an active pup?


RE: Dead pick-up - debbie - 02-06-2013

yes.


RE: Dead pick-up - Adam - 02-06-2013

Obvious question: you checked the battery?


RE: Dead pick-up - Grungie - 02-06-2013

I say maybe one of the pots or whatever could be dead/dirty connection or whatnot. Basically take it to a guitar/bass tech place and have them check stuff for you. If the pickup is dead, they should be able to tell.

Sad It's one of my Bartelonni MK-2's

Check the battery and if it's not that then do what Grungie said

I hope it's the battery...
