Re: Elecs quit working!!! (7 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Thank you all for your response and do I feel like a fool! After reading what you all wrote I got out my dental mirror and had a good look inside. Imagine my surprise when I discovered a pouch inside toward the neck with a velcro flap and two wires leading out of it and inside the pouch......a nine volt battery!!!!!! I had no idea this was inside of my guitar as this is my first acoustic/electric guitar. So, in closing I thank you again for all of your responses and I owe you one! Eppy3

Topic: Elecs quit working!!! (7 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Hi folks! This is my first post.I recently purchased an acoustic/electric Epiphone Masterbuilt jumbo guitar which sounds and plays absolutely incredible. Allthough the plug in jack seemed a tad tight I figured this would loosen with use.It hasn,t. About two months ago I plugged in and as things usually go,nothing came through the amplifier.So, before I take this guitar to the shop does anybody have any suggestions as to what might be causing this problem with my guitar? The amplifier checks out fine as I have other guitars. The pick-up in the Epiphone is a Baggs Element pick-up system,I suspect this is a under the bridge mounted unit and the volume control is a sound hole mounted unit.Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you,Eppy3.
