guyl Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 For a few years, I was overjoyed with my B-Band Statement (which sounded awesome). Sadly - it started to die. First the tone started to go off a bit. Then it started to buzz and feedback. Couldn't get any response from B-Band or advice on how to repair, so I changed it for something else. When researching recently, I came across a lot of comments like: "The Realist is excellent but it doesn't last very long". I kinda hoped spending £hundreds on a pickup meant you are set for life! Does anyone know if these kind of pickups have a limited life? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
