I did a little reading and it looks like the only way they will lose a significant amount of sensitivity is if it is exposed to extremely high temperatures. "The degradation is highly correlated with temperature. The less sensitive 'natural' single crystal materials (gallium phosphate...

Piezo's do start to lose their ability to generate electricity over time but I am not sure how long it takes. I don't think it is something that happens over the course of a few days though for you to notice. I would think it is a very gradual process.

I think electronics engineering has come a logs way in 20 years. As for the piezo's you can buy for $.002 online; all I have to say to that is you get what you pay for. Those are absolute garbage. The piezo chip in the cheap ones is thinner than a sheet of paper. The crystals convert mechanical...

Ok I won't post anything else about my pickups. I just paid $100 to DBC for the same thing and can't afford to pay another $120 here

Great thanks a lot!
