Dave Scepter Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I would wrap the battery with thin foam and stick it in this area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomteriffic Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Agreed on the positioning. Hopefully the thin foam will work, but I had a Chap5 bass that discharged very quickly anyway. I wound up wrapping the battery completely, with several layers of electrical tape to keep it from shorting. A PITA to be sure, but better than it conking out halfway through a show.

Yes thin foam "to keep from bouncing around inside" wrapped with electrical tape... really not a pita as changing battery is not that often... I've had a 9v battery inside my Jackson Soloist for years now... still waiting for it to die 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks.
Also does anyone know who's picture this is? I have it labeled as a Chaparral Custom w/EMGS belonging to Punkavenger but he said not his.
