Members bluesboy Posted November 21, 2006 Members Share Posted November 21, 2006 Sometimes when i go to switch from my bridge pickup to my neck pickup, the neck pickup doesnt come on. then ill switch back and forth and it will come on. the bridge pickup is always Ok. Any ideas what it might be and how to fix it? Im thinking it's a dirty connection on the swtich, but i dunno,,, any ideas? Thanks EDIT: ive put in tons of pickups but never messed around with switches, so im kind of in the dark here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members curseoftruth Posted November 21, 2006 Members Share Posted November 21, 2006 Its an easy fix, just make usre you solder the correct wires to the correct places on the switch. This is something that I have change dout on every Epi I've ever owned. Have not had to do it on my SG yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Pope on a Rope Posted November 22, 2006 Members Share Posted November 22, 2006 Contact cleaner should fix it up. It is most likely dirty and just in need of cleaning rather than replacing. Try cleaning electronics before replacing them. Most often that is all you need to do if you have a switch or a pot that is acting up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
