Bison Bass crackling

Recommended Posts

Recently had the volume and tone pots changed in my bison. Things have been fine since then but last night i plugged in and all i got was crackling, this was before i even touched a string or owt! It calmed down a bit but then kicked back in. Ive tried my other bass through the same lead/set-up and there are no issues so definitely seems to be the bison. Moneys tight at the mo so wondering if anyone can suggest possible diagnosis before i send it back off to my guitar techs.

My first port of call would be to get some switch cleaner in the pots and even a wee squirt on the jack contacts. While you're under the hood check to see if there are any noticeable breaks in the wire/solder joints.
