Pow_22 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) 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.

Ou7shined Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) 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.
