I have a set in mine that I'm going to switch out. It may not be for another month though....Why do you need it so bad, if you don't mind me asking?

because there is something wrong with my preamp and no one can seem to figure out how to fix it. i've had the ssII for almost 2 years and have never used it in a single show. i'm sure that the people at warwick are good people and love their respective mother's, but they are absolutely no help to me.

try emailing this guy....DBGTech@danabgoods.com

That's Tyler...very very helpful guy!

oh ok, i'll try calling him then, because he had emailed me before but then didn't respond to my response. this may be a dumb question, but that is his work line, right? i wouldn't want to bother the guy at home. thanks.

it's the number he put down on his email response to me. He's a great guy. He sent me a brass Just a Nut for free.

Do you mean: Distortion when plucking hard?
That's exactly the same problem I have and I can tell you, exchanging the preamp to a new MEC DOESN'T help...
My last hope is a conversion to 18V or a SD STC-3A preamp, because I know a guy whose distortion dissappeared after isntalling the SD preamp.

cheers

no no no, mine just drains batteries within a couple of days. they are always engaged for some reason, no matter if i'm plugged in or not. i believe that there is a short someone, but no one can find it.

Tyler's the man! He's even given me parts for free before. Recently, he only charged me $100 for a brand new lined-fretless Corvette Standard neck--including the labor to put it on, put strings on, and set it up.

wow! i wonder why my experience has been so negative thus far? well, i'm leaving for vacation in a few days, so I'll try him when I get back. I greatly appreciate all of the help that everyone has provided.

The battery drain probably has to do with a problem in the output jack, not the preamp module itself. It is supposed to sense that a cord is plugged in and engage the circuit, but if something is shorting out it'll think its on all the time and drain the battery.

A local tech should be able to take care of it.

If that doesn't fix it and you still can't get a response from Dana B Goods, let me know ... I'll drive over there and bark at them.
