Something's loose inside my Squier

Yesterday I was goofing around with my Squier VM P-bass, and when I had to move some stuff, I was turning my bass upside down. I could hear something loose tumble around inside the bass, anyone ever experienced that before?

Any suggestions where to look, and maybe what it is?

Is everything working as it should? In other words, does it have any relation to a new, or old, fault?

Have you taken the sctrachplate off to have a look? If you can hear something loose inside the bass it can only really be in one of the cavities under the scratchplate. There certainly shouldn't be anything rattling about inside it at any rate.

Only just about every day of my life. :D

Slacken off or remove the screws near your controls and gently lift the p/g (maybe jam it open with something) then flip it over and shake it. If nothing comes out you might just have to take the whole p/g off.

There's something tiny tumbling around in my upright. Fortunately, I don't often turn it upside down.

Yep, everything is working as it should, no problems with the electronics
