This is my first post to Ukulele Underground, although I have browsed similar threads for help on this. I have little to no experience on both uke and electronic parts and I’m hoping someone could kindly point me in the right direction to fix this issue.
I just bought a cheap electric Concert Ukulele on Amazon - a Donner DUC-4E. No buzzing, good sound overall, lcd tuner and pickup were working just fine plugged in my amp. Then I put it aside for ten minutes and when I try it again the pickup has stopped working completely.
Amp was working properly so I first thought the tuner was on (it wasn’t) and tried turning it off and on, plug it in with different cables, unscrewed as gently as possible the whole battery/line part to search for loose wires - but nothing seems off. It came with two brand new 3V watch button batteries so it's not a battery issue, as the tuner's still functioning like I said.
What you think it could be?
I know I could simply have Amazon to replace it, but I really like this little fella and I’d just prefer to try and fix it myself if is something I can manage to.
Thanks again for any help!
