Thanks for your responses. The strings are about 2 month old Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinky's. What do I need to look out for when inspecting the wiring?

Hi guys I have a Yamaha RBX170 PJ bass that has served me incredibly well, however recently, the pickups output has dropped significantly. So much so that I can't even get my amp to clip even at full gain (Ampeg PF350 if that's important). Anyway, the bass used to sound great but now just...
