Hi Mike
I have a bit of a situation you might have had experience with in your changing the electronics on some of your basses.
I have a slightly used Aiersi solid body bass. I suspect it is from the same factory in China that most of the others come from. I like it a lot because it has a good sound, plays well and is very comfortable to hold.
But it is using up 9v batterys quickly. The last one died after less than 2 weeks of playing. My Gold Tone solid body battery has lasted for months.
I opened up the bass to see if I could see any loose wires. When I plugged it in to the amp and moved wires around there was a lot of static which seemed to come when I touched the braided wire to the pickup. I could not feel any warm spots that might indicate a loose wire. But that does not mean they are all soldered well.
I would appreciate any suggestions you might have.
Thanks,
John
