Ye...ah... but if you have an Aria PE80, I REALLY want to be your friend!! ( I so want one of those bad boys, and the PE600 too!) I have the PE125 PE130, and an ES700.

I wanna be your friend.

yes, you shouldn't have a problem UNLESS it's 10V AC.

Ok, how many times are you going to post this?

"Supposedly" meant to cut off that high pitch weird harmonic some basses have. A properly cut nut, string trees, or properly wrapped posts would solve the same supposed issues.

I don't know.... this may be a radical concept, but how about..... wait for it.... wait for it..... TRYING the line out? (This was the same sound guy we all pretty much agreed upon, that he was a moron, right?)

After some 30 years, and thousands of gigs, my beloved Roland Blues Cube is starting to bite the dust. Some high end fizzles on clean channel, turning on and off almost randomly, and needing time to warm up like it's a tube amp. So when I saw this for 80 bucks in a pawn shop, (Where else?) I grabbed it. Carvin SX200. 100 watts LOUD, 2 channels, built in effects which sound nice, reverb, effects in/out, headphone jack, line out, variable ohm output for extension cabs... quite a few features. Overall impressions, other than louder than heck, is it's a bit on the brighter side of things, 3 band EQ is nice, the lead channel isn't bad, but.... I use pedals for gain. Has this "Blues" button that kicks in a 5K filter.... gag. And as a bonus, it's about 20 pounds lighter than my Roland!

Sometimes correcting a mistake causes the mistake to be noticed.

Tuning issues perhaps, or maybe the hand went a little too far, and changed keys by accident. (Or if it was me playing, "I MODULATED to the key of H on purpose!") Seriously, everyone makes mistakes.

The above fits if you turn on your board, then start playing the gig within 10 seconds of powering up. If that's what you do, then you deserve having to press maybe 5 or 6 pedals off.

Ok, so it sounded as if you had the tone set to zero, despite the setting. Something is grounding out on the tone pot. Pull the tone pot and add some electrical tape to the bottom of the lugs, then do the same to the volume control. The black paint there is shielding paint and might be causing a short.

The picture doesn't tell me anything. It tells me one pot isn't in the circuit, and that's all. Perhaps a better pic, you know, overhead, showing the entirety of the electronic cavity would be more helpful.

Alas, the picture is garbage. 2 Humbuckers/3-Way Toggle Switch/2 Volumes/2 Tones (guitarelectronics.com) 2 Humbuckers/3-Way Lever Switch/2 Volumes/2 Tones (guitarelectronics.com) one modern, one vintage.

When I played bass professionally, averaging 2 hours a night, 5 nights a week, and about 10 hours practicing, I changed them once a year. UNLESS one broke. Also, there is the trick of boiling the strings in a pot with a drop of dawn in it. Cleans them up quite nicely, and good for another few months. Oh, strings of choice? D'Addario Half rounds.

I played a Danelectro Corel longhorn 12 string during the 80's and 90's. Eventually the neck block caved it, and it almost folded in on itself. I have a Gianinni Cravola 12er that needs some work on it, and an Encore Ric copy. The Encore is the single best description as to why Ric 12 strings aren't copied more!

On what model? The number you show is 2002.

Les Paul neck humbucker. Listen to early King Crimson, and you'll understand.

Hey, I'm still on pain killers from the quad, what do you want?

Pictures would be a big help. The serial number checker is full of mistakes. (Tells me my Chinese made Ibanez were made in Korea.) Aria has changed their serial number system at least 4 times that I am aware of. Starting with a 5, could be made in 72, 77, 85, 87. Pictures would be a big help, since we can cross check the model with the years the model was available. (I'm somewhat the el facto expert on Aria's round these parts.)

Vol/tone pots.

They are not slot heads. They are typical tuners used on most acoustic guitars.

13.00 bucks and in stock. AYUBOUSA Acoustic Guitar Tuning Pegs Machine Heads Tuning Keys Tuners Chrome | eBay 8 bucks 3R3L Acoustic Classical Guitar String Tuning Pegs Machine Heads Tuners Key Metal | eBay But before replacing tuners, have you lubed the nut slots? 90% of the time, tuning issue start with a crappy nut.

Using "GOOGLE" hint hint, The only ones that Fender makes with red bases are the Fender Ultra Noiseless. These ain't them. When in doubt, walk away.

Ok, unsolder. My opinion is always: "If you have to cut wires, you don't know what you are doing." You will have to pull all the pickup and pots out, the output jack, and unsolder the ground wire that goes to the bridge/tailpiece. That you should be able to do thru the F hole. (Should be connected to one of the pots, most likely tone.) The can covering the jack is held together by 2 solder points. Pretty easy to break open with a small screwdriver. (One of the STUPIDIST ideas Gibson and Aria ever did! Was thought to super shield from ground noise. Didn't do jack, except make money for repair techs.) Up to you if you want to replace the can. Then put it all back together. As to how: fishing line. I won't bother going into details. If you ever did hollow body electric work before, you know the drill.

Firstly, it's an output jack. Secondly, it may be best just to get a replacement. It's 55 years old, things just wear out.
