Motx Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 So my low e string and possibly my g string are cutting in and out and sometimes not making sound at all when I use the Model guitars and computer on the guitar, when I turn the Model effects off and use the magnetic pick ups it works properly.. battery is fully charged and there's no damage to the guitar, any ideas?

silverhead Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 Sounds like some of the piezo pickups need to be cleaned or replaced. There are many previous threads here on how to clean them; do some searching. For replacement it would be best to replace the entire set; take it to your nearest authorized repair centre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motx Posted July 17 Author Share Posted July 17 But if the magnetic pickup setting is the one that works, wouldn't it mean that its whatever computer picks up the signal for the guitar model effects isn't working and not the normal magnetic pickups?

silverhead Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 That’s right. The piezo pickups are not the magnetic pickups. The piezos live in the saddle of the string and deliver the signals to the onboard computer for DSP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
