MEC preamp troublings

IIRC the $$ is one of the few Warwick basses that is truly passive if the batteries die, so the bass will still operate if the active circuit is defunct. However, it would be unusual for the preamp to fry for no reason (have you been trying to do any mods on it?), I'd be more inclined to think that there might be a wire loose or a dry solder joint somewhere. Look for any solder points that look different to the rest; i.e. a very shiny joint if the rest are dull, then resolder that point. If you aren't too confident with soldering/DIY work, then it shouldn't be a huge job for a tech to fault-find the problem.
